Jackson Hosking is a gaming and tech enthusiast from Wiltshire, England. When he’s not playing Fortnite or finding out about (or reporting on!) the latest gadgets, he’s either swimming in a river or watching football. He won’t hear a bad word said about Manchester United. And he’s not too bad behind the wheel of a boat, either.
