About Christian Zibreg

Christian joined HowToGeek in 2024 as an Apple specialist focused on helping people solve technical issues and achieve more with their technology. His works were published by reputable publications like iDownloadBlog, MakeUseOf, Tom's Guide, 9to5Mac, 9to5Google, and others.

One of the original tech bloggers with 20+ years of journalism experience, Christian studied Information Science specializing in Expert Systems and Management Information Systems back in the 1990s.

During his graduation year, Chris contributed to a weekly enterprise-focused magazine and started a faculty e-zine distributed on floppy disks. The pet project sparked a lifelong love for writing so strongly that he dropped out and took a leap of faith in journalism.

Over the years, Christian worked his way to becoming Editor-in-Chief of a gaming magazine, and started three IT periodicals covering Windows PCs, consoles and consumer tech. After a decade in print journalism, he founded and ran a marketing/PR agency specializing in digital marketing and interactive entertainment for five years.
