Experience

Dylan began writing at the age of 12, entering writing competitions focused on defunct sports forums, where he developed an immense love for the medium. As his horizons and interests expanded, Dylan's lifelong enjoyment of good food prompted him to begin writing for Static Media in 2024. As a contributor to The Takeout, Dylan has brought his expertise and love of Asian cuisine, cooking shows, and restaurants across the United States with him to deliver well-rounded coverage of all things delicious when it comes to food and cocktails. Dylan excels at covering new menu items and developments in the ever-changing world of fast food as soon as they happen. Today, Dylan's ongoing goal is to give readers insight into the vast world of food culture while attempting to help them find their place within it.

Education

Dylan received a certificate in modern journalism from NYU in 2025.
