Simplify, simplify, simplify. That's my motto. I cover breaking news and write about domestic politics, gender, and human rights. Drawing from Tom Wolfe, the pioneer of New Journalism, I try to combine journalistic research with the techniques of fiction writing to report real-life events. I strive to be accurate and fair, and to verify information from multiple sources. Above all, I am trying to perfect sentences on a daily basis.
