Devon Maloney is a music journalist, feminist, and snarky meme enthusiast hailing from sunny El Segundo, California (no, she didn’t leave her wallet there, but you’re definitely the first person to ask!). She currently works as the News Editor of SPIN.com; you can tell because they put a picture of her on there (the bylines might also be a giveaway). Previously, you might’ve seen her work (or not, most likely) on the late, great Billboard Pro, where she worked as Assistant Editor and then Interim Editor; she also wrote for both of the other Billboard sites, and in Billboard magazine. She likes people to know graduated magna cum laude in December 2010 from Boston University’s College of Communication with a degree in journalism and sociology, and as a result hopes to pursue a career life that challenges her to be as clever, creative, and helpful as possible. She has a tendency to type in all caps, and, unfortunately for the reputation of her demographic, lives in Brooklyn.
