Marshall Gunnell

Marshall is a professional writer with a degree in Business and Fine Arts. Currently, he is based in Tokyo, Japan, where he works as a Technical Writer. When he's not working, he spends most of his free time building ITEnterpriser, learning Japanese, or hiking the mountains of Japan. Prior to his current adventure, Marshall was based in Taipei, Taiwan, where he was Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) and technical staff writer at StorageReview. He provided in-depth news coverage and detailed product reviews on storage arrays, hard drives, SSDs, and any related hardware or software that fits the scope of the data storage industry. He also developed sales strategies based on regional and global market research to identify and generate new project initiatives. Before that, Marshall could be found knee-deep in NAS, SAN, and DAS. His journey began with Synology, a developer of network-attached storage solutions, wireless routers, and surveillance software. Here, he maintained marketing campaigns involving the XS+ business series, maintained relationships with key media and technology partners, attended tradeshows and events including CES, and wrote the occasional press release and technical blog. From Synology, he went on to work in the enterprise-focused storage business. Marshall has always been a fan of travel---so much so that in 2014 he immigrated from Mississippi to Taiwan, also known as "Technology Island." In 2019, he made the jump from Taiwan to Japan. Who knows where he'll end up next. His online publications have been read over 6 million times and can be found on sites such as How-To Geek, Zapier, StorageReview, and others.
