Ecom Editor

Beren has worked on creative tech magazines and websites at Future Publishing for nearly two decades. Cutting his teeth as Staff Writer on the digital art magazine ImagineFX, in 2012 he helped bridge the magazine/website gap as Commissioning Editor on the newly launched Creative Bloq. He went on to lead ImagineFX, the fine art mag Paint & Draw, then worked on the Canon Pro Europe website. As editor of Computer Arts he led a successful redesign of the iconic design mag, then in 2020 he moved back to Creative Bloq, the biggest global art and design website. As Ecom Editor, when he's not reviewing the best audiophile headphones, ergonomic office chairs, phones, laptops, TVs and monitors, he helps digital creatives get the best deals on the kit that they need and love.
