Seyth Miersma
Raised and groomed in the art of car writing by way of the magical internet, Seyth Miersma has carved out a career in the automotive world by telling stories about great roads and great cars. With fleeting exceptions being made for a few newspapers in Texas, Miersma’s words have been rendered with ones and zeros in the digital pages of Winding Road magazine, where he began as a freelancer in 2006 and left as Editor-in-Chief in 2012. Miersma brings the experience of hundreds of car reviews and comparison tests to the Autoblog crew, as well as a love for first-wave Japanese imports, racing video games that only rarely involve stuff blowing up, and driving through the dark of a fall morning in third gear with the radio off. He is very tall (the 97th percentile-set should read Miersma’s reviews with a close eye).
Alex Nunez
Alex Nunez has loved cars since childhood despite spending his formative years in Manhattan, where automobile ownership is largely impractical and just a little insane. Fortunately, he moved to the suburbs just as he reached driving age, and has owned cars (some quite boring) ever since. His love for automobiles, fondness for writing, and a chance meeting with John Neff brought him to Autoblog in 2006.

After graduating, he became a full time freelance automotive photojournalist, earning a reputation for a clean and simple style of photography. Along with his contributions to Autoblog.com, Drew’s work can be seen in numerous magazines, newspapers, books, and web sites from around the world.

Bowman got his internet sea legs with Autofiends.com and DriverSide.com, though most recently spent his days as the managing editor of the WebRidesTV.com blog.
