Associate Editor, Autoblog
Byron grew up in a family of textile and boating enthusiasts and rebelled by taking an interest in cars. He is a casual autocrosser and occasional track day participant who believes everybody should drive cars that make them happy. His current fleet includes a CT4-V Blackwing, JK Wrangler and NA Miata. When he's not driving or working on those, he's expanding his knowledge of architecture and urban planning and development.
