Weekend Editor
Cheyenne is Engadget’s weekend editor and covers a little bit of everything. She’s particularly interested in emerging technology and niche gadgets, climate change, space, privacy, and internet culture. She’ll talk your ear off about Tamagotchis if you get her started. Cheyenne has reported on consumer technology and science since 2015, and was among the founding editors of Input (RIP). Offline, she’s kept busy by her menagerie of pets both real and virtual, but can otherwise be found watching indie horror movies, playing relentlessly difficult video games, or honing her skills as a wildlife rehabilitator.
