Brian Funes

Brian Funes is a Tech & Gaming Editor at Savings.com. As a seasoned freelance writer since 2009, he has written features about gaming and esports, most notably for Red Bull. He has also written copy for consumer brands like Avery Products, and put together buyer’s guides for thrifty shoppers on Savoo. You can find some of his past work here.

Like many shoppers, Black Friday is what got Brian into bargain hunting. He was the guy among his friends organizing the 4 AM carpool to his local Fry’s in hopes of scoring premium computer parts and exclusive console bundles at their lowest prices. His Steam wishlist is also obscenely long in preparation for the Steam Summer and Winter sales, but they are still not as long as the games on his backlog he has yet to play.

Outside of writing, Brian is a craft beer enthusiast who loves barrel-aged stouts, a pugilist fan with an eye on the lightweight and welterweight divisions, a budding music producer cutting his teeth on Logic Pro X, and an avid fighting game player who could spend an entire Sunday watching Smash tournaments on Twitch.
