Her creative fiction and nonfiction short stories have been published in Literary magazines in Canada, US and the UK. She is a member of The Writers’ Guild of Alberta. She often focuses on women’s fiction, finding comedy in the small nuances of life.

She loves to travel (except in a pandemic). Her favourite destinations include anywhere in Italy. Being a planner, she thoroughly enjoys the holiday research prior to the trip. She always jots in her travel journal, where you will find more than one silly tale recorded in old-fashioned ink.
