Every now and then Squawkfox gets some print and digital ink.

If you’d like to interview me for your site, show, or program then just shoot me an email request via squawkfox [at] gmail [dot] com. I’ve done several radio, television, newspaper, blog, and podcast interviews to date. I’m friendly and I’ll only bite if you ask nicely.
