Managing Editor, Automoblog Team
About the Editor:
With over a decade of experience writing articles, websites, and marketing materials focused on and revolving around the auto industry, Brenda champions the creation of best-in-class content at Automoblog.
Previously, she served as senior editor and writer for the marketing and outreach efforts of Dana Aftermarket, Inc., crafting everything from enthusiast-focused blogs to technical sell sheets. She covered all things Jeep® – including off-road events and extreme-performance gear – and documented the efforts of Dana’s hard-core vehicle testing team in Moab.
The daughter (and leading fan) of a drag-race champ, Brenda will probably never have a vehicle she loves more than her first car, a 1974 Plymouth Duster. She now lives in the snow belt of Northern Michigan, so all-wheel drive and heated seats take precedence over sleek lines and raw horsepower … but her current ride still has racing stripes.
