About Elizabeth B.

About Sandra B.

I have worked in Canada and the U.S. for public radio and TV - National Public Radio and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. I am a collaborator and have worked with PBS Frontline, ProPublica, the Center for Public Integrity, Reveal News, the ICIJ and Swiss TV. I am a member of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists and a former board member of the Global Investigative Journalism Network. The work I have done has shone a light into the dark corners where bad behavior, incompetency and dishonesty hide. I tell the stories of the ordinary person who isn't being heard. A recent story on cybercrime revealed how your on-line bank account can look normal while criminals are stealing your money or how they can lock up your computer and force you to pay a ransom. Another story showed how young workers in Asia who make your phone, your tablet, your computer are getting cancers because they work with chemicals that have been banned in western countries. My strengths lie in being organized, thinking ahead and keeping things moving towards the goal posts. I can be obsessed but in a good way, and only on projects.
