Patrick Holland

As Director of Content, Hardware, I lead CNET's team of journalists and editors, covering news and testing on smartphones, laptops, wireless carriers, AI, and pretty much anything with a battery. Our teams test and review products, then share our findings with readers in an approachable way. With over 9 years of experience at CNET, I use my deep tech industry expertise to craft an editorial strategy that best covers a topic's news cycle. I collaborate with writers to develop their pitch, strengthen their stories through edits and help them identify potential follow-up articles and commentaries that they can write. I'm passionate about storytelling (hey, former theater director and playwright here).
