About The Author

Delilah

Consumer advocate and consumer right’s specialist. I took over as the team lead here a year ago after spending the last four years working on consumer advocacy and helping build up the website you see here. Before joining the team, I worked as a freelance content writer for a small news and information blog. When I am not fighting for consumer rights, I spend my time with my family and teaching piano to the children in my neighborhood. I have two cats, Pearl and Ruby, who I adopted as a pair of kittens a year ago. I can best be summed up by the quote from Steve Jobs “If You Are Working On Something That You Really Care About, You Don’t Have To Be Pushed. The Vision Pulls You.” I really care about what we do here!
