Ian Carlos Campbell is an Associate Editor at Inverse. If it's tech that you wear, carry with you, or that makes you move, he’s reviewing it and thinking about it, from smartphones to VR headsets.
Ian previously worked with Input as a part-time reviews writer, and before that, was embedded with The Verge’s news team as part of the inaugural class of Vox Media’s fellowship program. When he’s not lamenting “the metaverse,” Ian enjoys thinking critically about video games, watching movies and tv shows, and petting his dog Peggy.
