I write romantic eco-thrillers with strong environmental themes and socially responsible narrative nonfiction. I am passionate about culture, landscapes, knowledge accessibility, the arts and Momma Earth. I love writing books that remind us of our inherent, yet too often severed, connection with nature.
I studied in the United States, Canada and Scotland, before a 20+ year environmental consulting career as an archaeologist and Indigenous Knowledge studies lead and engagement facilitator. In 2022 I pivoted to remotely piloted aircraft systems (drones) and am a post-secondary RPAS Instructor and advanced pilot.
I am a Canada Council of the Arts grant recipient, two-time Energy Futures Lab Banff Summit storyteller, and have presented internationally, including at the British Society of Criminology conference on the effectiveness of using arts-based approaches.
When I’m not writing you can find me running, bumping into my next adventure, or trying to figure out where in the garden to put the makeshift wood fired pizza oven.
