Former full-time journalist with the second-largest selling 'quality' or broadsheet' newspaper in Australia, in Australia's largest city.

Current psychology major within the Faculty of Science at one of the 'Group of Eight' Australian universities.

I have also studied at university the philosophy of science - which analyses and evaluates the nature and validity of scientific perception and knowledge.

I also have a long-standing interest in meditative traditions of psychological training and experiential philosophy such as Buddhism, Hindusim, Christian Mysticism, and Sufism.


I have come to the conclusion that:

  • information which is as objective or neutral as possible is crucial to the 'healthy' functioning of societies.

and

  • delivering that information clearly and concisely is the best way to serve the first purpose - and is also an act of kindness to the reader! :-)
