Naas was on board as the timepiece editor with Niche Media for all of its regional titles for nearly 14 years. Naas remains a full-time freelance writer and continues to contribute to for newspapers and magazines both in print and online around the world, including Forbes magazine’s online publication Forbes.com,[5] Departures print and Departures.com, Watchtime and a host of others.
