Mobile and A/V Freelancer

Bryan M. Wolfe is a freelancer who writes about mobile and A/V at Digital Trends. He has historically focused on Apple products, but in recent years, he has also been learning more about Google and Android, and has come to enjoy that side as well.

Based in State College, PA (Go Nittany Lions), Bryan originally intended to pursue a career in law, but that did not come to fruition. Instead, he has spent significant time working in various tech industries, eventually leading to a full-time focus on writing about technology. Sites where he has written have included TechRadar, iMore, How to Geek, and many more.  You’ll always see Bryan with the latest iPhone and Pixel devices, alongside his MacBook Pro and iPad Pro.

When he’s not working or playing with tech products, Bryan helps build sets for his teenage daughter’s theater department. His goal is to eventually live full-time on a cruise ship and write every day in a new port.
