Experience
Adam Swiderski has worked in digital media since before blogs were even a thing. He cut his teeth as a video game writer for sites like Gamepen and The Adrenaline Vault in the late '90s before signing on as an Editor at UGO Networks, where he remained until well after blogs were a thing. From there, he signed on at SYFY and became Editor-in-Chief of SYFY WIRE, spearheading coverage of events like San Diego Comic-Con, producing podcasts and video, and writing and editing scads of features on movies, TV, comics, video games, and more. Most recently, he served as Editor-in-Chief of CBR.com. He has also written for Yahoo Life, TechCrunch, Engadget, October, and a bunch of other web sites that no longer exist.
Education
Adam has a Bachelor of Science in the Foreign Service degree from the Georgetown University Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, where he learned a lot about both geopolitics and how to write about things.
