David J Lumb

Hey there! I write about mobile life for CNET.

I’ve been writing about tech for nine years for various publications. Currently, I’m a Mobile Reporter for CNET, a tech site with readers around the world. I write, edit, and shoot video about mobile technology, as well as cover product launches and industry conventions. I’m also a card-carrying member of the Writer’s Guild of America, East (WGAE).
