About Me

Hi there! I’m Chris Young, an experienced freelance writer, editor, and journalist based in Malaga, Spain specializing in innovations such as space technologies, robotics, and renewable energies. I also have extensive experience in content marketing with a strong grasp of SEO best practices.

Curiosity and learning are the cornerstones of my work. These principles have led me to interview some of the world’s brightest minds, including former NASA astronauts, a former NASA Deputy Administrator, rocket company CEOs, renowned astrophysicists, and many more.

I have reported at the Mobile World Congress and have written for big tech and space firm clients, including Thales Alenia Space, NEC, and Siemens Energy. My most-viewed articles have earned more than one million page views apiece and high-profile organizations that have shared and cited my articles include The New York Times and the SETI Institute.

Testimonials

“Chris is a very talented writer/journalist with great storytelling and research skills. He is very adaptive to different content types. He wrote breaking news, SEO articles, lists, branded articles, and exclusive articles for Interesting Engineering. He delivered nothing but quality work while we worked together. He's also very responsible for notifying his schedule to his managers in advance. Anyone who’s managed a team of remote writers should know how much value this has. I hope I'll have a chance to work with him again in the future.”
