About me: Hi! I'm the co-founder and CEO of Figment. So glad you found me here. I started Figment in 2010 with Dana Goodyear, and have been thrilled to watch it become one of the biggest, and most excitingly vibrant, teen writing communities online. I am the former managing editor of The New Yorker magazine, where I worked for more than 13 years, and of Conde Nast Portfolio. Hope you enjoy the site.
