Hey,

I write about it often, but it’s a topic that makes me love my job, it’s the reason why communities work and why great people are great. I’m talking about honesty and ethics in everything we do, in how we live.

RReading about corruption, tax avoidance tricks, wars, and also about poorly written code or bad user experiences has taught me a lot. Looking back at projects where I stood behind the idea and business model and at projects that I saw only as money-making work showed me that sticking to my ethical principles and being honest makes me feel better, which leads to better work.

At this point, I want to thank Kai Brach, author of Offscreen. His stories, his interviews with people who share their thoughts about meaningfulness, ethics, and the matter of our work were important influences to how I think and work today.
