Writing and storytelling has always been a constant in my life. Sometimes, I still stumble upon a dusty grade one journal in my parent's basement. In elementary school, Creative Writing was my favourite subject and I have always had an immense love of reading. As a child, when my family visited my Grandmother's cottage every summer, we always stopped at the local library first. I would leave with a stack of books piled so high, I had to hold it in place with my chin to prevent it from toppling over. 

At the Canadian College of Performing Arts, I wrote my own monologues and performed them for my classmates. Later, when I studied Broadcast Journalist at Loyalist College in Belleville, Ontario, I learned how to write for print, radio and television. You can read more about my published works under the About Me and Books sections of this website.

I am the Co-Founder and Director of Wild Roots Nature and Forest School in Ottawa, Ontario. My passion for writing inspired me to pilot Writing Wild, a creative writing class for children in a Forest School setting. The program sold out in less than 24 hours!

My debut novel, Summer at Pine Lake, was published by Evernight Teen on September 15th, 2023. I am currently writing my second novel. Please follow along on my social media channels and don't forget to sign up for my newsletter!
