What I cover
I write about social justice.
My background
I’m a Johannesburg ground reporter with a sharp focus on social and children’s justice. I cut my teeth at Daily Maverick and see my work’s purpose as helping to restore the dignity of many, especially poor South Africans. I know too well what rubber bullet shots taste like.
Journalistic ethics
I aim to always search for the truth and report truthfully. I ensure ethical journalism by exercising reasonable restraint.
