I’m a writer of genre-bending fiction, a science communicator, and an informal educator from the heavily forested lands of Treaty 8 territory. Now living in the Pacific Northwest, I try my best to impersonate a sea sponge by enjoying a simple life while soaking up all the knowledge and experiences that float my way. Unlike a sponge, I’m a gifted storyteller and have performed my work for spoken word audiences, Science Slam events, and scientific conferences across North America. I am a collector of hobbies, but I often enjoy mixing watercolours, cuddling my leonberger, and obsessing over my plants.
