Trained as a science writer, I have been associated with print and broadcast media in Sri Lanka and Asia for over 20 years. I have variously been feature writer, op ed essayist, radio presenter, TV host, documentary producer and journalist trainer. I continue to juggle many of these roles, while also blogging, tweeting and occasionally moonlighting as a media researcher and conference speaker.
