Journalist & Writer
About Me
I am a storyteller located in central Utah. I feel inspired to pursue a career that allows me to embark on the truth and disseminate the news to my community. Journalism is a field where many of my interests collide: writing, photography, and engaging with my community.
Writing has led me to understand who I am, and the world around me. Currently, I'm in the process of editing my first novel. When I’m not writing, reading or doing homework you can find me taking pictures and looking for untold stories to tell. I created this website to share the stories that I helped tell and create. Let me help you tell your story. Thanks for visiting.
xo, Ivana

Statement of Ethics
Minimize Harm
A pillar belief in my ethical beliefs is to do no harm. As a journalist, I will always strive to minimize the harm that I may ensue. When publishing or reporting I will take into account the public's right to know and the implications of the dispersal of certain information, including the privacy of others. As a journalist, I will strive to be conscious of others beliefs and show the utmost respect.
​
Accountability and Transparency
As a journalist, I will be held accountable for my actions and reporting. That said, I am also human and will make mistakes. I will promptly acknowledge any wrongdoing or misreporting on my part and correct them. Editing and corrections will be accounted for and stated below on my articles.
​
Act Independently
I am accountable to my community. I will not act or report on the favors of others. As a journalist, I act alone. I will refrain from reporting on subjects that have potential conflicts of interest.
