We're sitting down with Will Pry, Director of Marketing at Lifeblue, to talk about his career in publishing and what the transition from print to digital has looked like, as well as how it's affected the industry.

We're talking with Bri Crow on all things technology, hiring, consulting, starting your own business, being a woman in the tech sphere, and how to find and retain the best tech talent.

A lot has happened since our last episode dropped (for starters: a worldwide pandemic), but we are back and ready to start exploring the ways in which the tech industry can create better digital experiences for everyone. We have a couple of episodes waiting in the wings that we'll release in the coming weeks, and in the meantime you can always get in touch with us on Twitter ([at]600pxfm).
