Cheyenne MacDonald

Cheyenne covers the messy, beautiful, sometimes terrifying crossroads of human culture and technology. CES’s Final Girl, if you will. From Big Tech accountability and innovation as a means for social progress to the offbeat gadgets and virtual spaces that provide us with necessary escapes, she aims to uplift and inform by way of thoughtful, ground-level reporting. Her focus also includes chronic illness, sex tech, marijuana, and all things spooky.

Offline, she is a helicopter ferret mom, Tamagotchi hoarder, and wildlife rehabilitator.
