If you’re a journalist and would like a credible, insightful and interesting source on a current news story, I am likely to be available to be a trusted resource for your work.
You are welcome to contact me at reputation.intelligence.rq@gmail.com or through LinkedIn, both of which I check often, or if your deadline is tight and the need is urgent, you are welcome to call me at 316-226-4071.
If you’re calling from a restricted number and I’m not available when you call, if you are comfortable leaving a message, I will contact you in some way where you feel your privacy and contact information is still protected. I will respond promptly upon first hearing your message.
I respect reporters and don’t contact them after they decide on a source, me or other people.
