B I O

I can recall my first memories of being introduced to books. I was four or five years old, curled up in my mother's bed as she read me several stories before bed. My bookcase was stacked with books.

Dr. Seuss

Berenstein Bears

Little Golden Books

Mr. Men and Little Miss series

These books were my favourites, and often on repeat. I remember I had the story memorized, often finishing the pages before my mom. These moments were special, not only did they create sacred memories, they introduced me to a world outside of my own. A world filled with curiosity, wonder, adventure, and endless possibilities. I started writing in 2012, mainly poetry and short stories. My introduction to children's book writing began with the publication of my first picture book, Timeless Love, published in 2019.

When writing, my goal is to create stories that uplift diverse voices. Stories of laughter, joy, and inspiration. Stories that enrich the diverse tapestry of our world, in which all are seen.

MORE ABOUT ME

I’ve realized I have found it challenging to be still and prefer the business that life often brings. I do know this can be somewhat problematic, I’m working on it.

When keeping busy, I enjoy the outdoors, running, reading, baking, listening to podcasts, and of course writing. I'm an avid yogi, and dream of opening a yoga studio once I retire.

I told you I was working on it.

Fun Facts about me:

I have been a participant on two Game Shows.
I performed on stage with Prince. Yep, you read right!
I have been in two commercials. Send me a message and I just might share.
I hope to be a dog owner one day. If you love dogs, let me know your favourite breed and why.
My favourite music is 80's Soft Rock! Listen, everyone has their guilty pleasures.
