le journo

My name is Iris (also known for the pseudonym Valerien Kristensen). I am a journalist, but also an artist by nature and entrep by heart.

​

I left my long-time career in the media in December 2017 to become a law student. Two weeks later, I found myself working as a paralegal in a law firm, testing the water if I was a good fit for the legal industry. Three months into it and I realized that a simpler life makes me happier. So, I went back to writing and embraced minimalism.

This site is an inside look into my life outside journalism and partly a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes of my profession.
