About Me

I’m a Canadian crime fiction author, and I’m currently in edits with my agent. My thriller The Alibi Scheme was shortlisted for a Crime Writers of Canada award, and my mystery The Bias of Rain was a finalist for a Daphne du Maurier Award. I’m the 2021 Secretary for RWA’s Kiss of Death Chapter, and I was Special Advisor to the Crime Writers of Canada from 2019-2020. I’m also a marketing and fundraising consultant as well as an aspiring Zumba champ and amateur kombucha brewer. While I don’t write under a pseudonym, I sometimes volunteer under one; let’s just say that on certain organic farms, there’s a gal known as Radish Runner, and if the wind hits the brim of her hat at just the right angle, you might even catch a glimpse of her. I live and write on traditional, treaty, and unceded First Nations and Inuit lands as well as Métis homelands. Coming to terms with my chronic illnesses and the dynamic disabilities they cause. In moderating this space, I err on the side of keeping it as safe as possible. She/her.
