Verizon Insider
What’s a Verizon Insider, you ask? We are a collective of influencers, bloggers, photographers from the northeast U.S. region selected to share our Verizon Wireless mobile and social media experiences online.
On March 29th – Verizon Wireless held kickoff event welcoming the group of curated ‘Verizon Voices’ to New York City. During the day-long event, we were introduced to the latest mobile applications, smart accessories and learned more about several social initiatives from Verizon. Did you know that being a Verizon Wireless customer has its’ perks? Check out a few of my favorite Verizon mobile apps and smartphone accessories highlighted during the kickoff event below.

Not too long ago, I shared my mobile makeover journey using the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. From mastering multitasking functions on the device to outfitting it in the most fashionable accessories I could find. Now, as a Verizon Insider, I look forward to sharing many more mobile experiences as well as discovering how Verizon Wireless can make my mobile life (and yours) a little bit easier everyday.

While the hash tag is sponsored by Verizon Wireless, the opinions I express tagged #VZWBuzz are my own.
