Oh hey there, nice to meet you. 

Writing is how I make my living. When I'm not writing stories for cities, I jump into my imaginary 'story room' and write stories for humans. For you. Thank you for choosing to spend some time with me.

And by 'me' I mean my characters, which are all in their own way an extension of me. Even the morally grey characters who are so fun to write about. Hopefully, in some way, you see a bit of yourself in them too: the good, the bad, and the interesting.

I'm a Canadian writer and history nerd who enjoys writing with a sprinkle of myth and magic 📚🇨🇦 🧜🏼
