Claim your profileRight now, I serve as the Innovation Editor at Observer.com in a freelance capacity, write a weekly page for the kids' magazine The Week Junior, and write for brands like TechCrunch. I also run a 25k subscriber political newsletter called Progressives Everywhere that has raised over $4 million for progressive Democratic candidates and causes. Until March, I served as Features Editor at SYFY. I focused on entertainment, with a focus on culture, movies and TV, technology, and unconventional stories that break through the endless noise of the internet. I helped build an audience from scratch, engaged with fans in a deep and authentic way, hosted a podcast called The Fandom Files, frequently hosted interviews on stage, and appeared in videos. I have covered film festivals, Comic-Cons, presidential inaugurations, massive political protests, and awards shows. In addition, I run ProgressivesEverywhere.org, a political newsletter that has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for progressive candidates and causes. Email: JordanZakarin@gmail.com
