About Me

I started writing as a six-year-old but didn’t create publishable work until much later. Thank goodness my mom saved all that fine, early work. Canadian born, I’ve also lived in England, Italy, Switzerland, and America. My first novels were written in Milan. I’ve been an advertising exec, landscape designer, mom, TEDX speaker, Huffington Post blogger, freelance marketer, health clinic owner and – always – a writer.

My current home is beside the ocean in Nova Scotia, a perfect and inspiring place for a writer to be.
