Liz is editor in chief of Fierce Network. Previously, she was the managing editor for Silverlinings. She made her debut on the telecom stage back when writing 3,000 word articles about Class 5 switches was still a thing that people wanted to read. She honed her skills at Telephony Magazine before moving on to The Net Economy, Light Reading, America’s Network and SDxCentral with stints in PR at TM Forum and editing for a crypto-focused pub called Blockworks. She lives in the Chicagoland area with her family, and enjoys spending time with a ragtag bunch of roller skating mamas and her dogs Ellen “Ripley” and Aspen "Penny" Lou. In her spare time, she plays clarinet in the McHenry County College Concert Band and her local community band and is a member of a handbell choir. She is published in McSweeney’s Internet Tendency.
