BIO

I grew up in beautiful New Brunswick, on Canada's east coast. I was a short track speed skater for years (and still have the thighs to prove it). Once I gave up on my Olympic dreams, I earned a B.A. in Communication Studies, during which time I also cut my teeth in the communications industry as a speechwriter for the premier (ask me about the time I almost broke up Canada).
After university I spent an unforgettable summer working with refugees from Kosovo and then headed to Belfast, Northern Ireland, where I was schooled in the fine arts of drinking and swearing.
I earned a graduate degree in global studies then spent a few years in the real world as a fundraising and marketing executive with non-profit organizations in Toronto and Vancouver. That morphed into my own copywriting business (which I still run on the side).
Finally, I got around to doing the only thing I've ever really wanted to do: write novels. I currently do that in Calgary with my two feisty daughters and our cat, Chaucer.
