As a classically educated journalist and professional communicator, I understand the critical importance of maintaining the highest standards of accuracy, honesty, inclusivity, integrity, reliability, impartiality and transparency. I adhere to strict standards for the sourcing of article content.
On this website and in content contributed to external media and publications, I adhere to the Society of Professional Journalists’ Code of Ethics, which “strives to ensure ethical free exchange of information that is accurate, fair and thorough.” To the best of my ability, all statements, statistics, facts and figures on this website are backed by research. I do not publish information that I can’t independently and confidently verify. My sources are cited and I conduct fact checks prior to publishing. An exception to this are posts in which I express my personal opinions.
I aim for authenticity. I do not work with guest contributors – all content is created by me for the purposes of this website.
