Aria Alamalhodaei
I'm a reporter who spent years covering the commercial space and hard-tech ecosystem at TechCrunch. I've reported breaking news, published scoops, and written long-form features on the people and companies shaping the industry.
Now I help high-conviction founders and technical teams explain what they're doing and why it matters. Whether it's media strategy, messaging, content development or executive communications, I can help translate your mission into clear, compelling narratives.
