From 2013 to 2020 he founded the website and blog ParaRationalise which worked to further individuals’ understanding of the paranormal. After a 3 year sabbatical from the paranormal field Kev is back and actively promoting an ethical and scientific approach to investigation through his social media, Tik Toks, conference talks and various podcasts and radio shows.
