A bit about me
I was born in South Africa, an extraordinary country with a rainbow of nations and spectacular scenery. I shared my childhood with my sister, two brothers, and Italian parents who showed us how beautiful life is with the unconditional love and support of family. In my youth I spent countless hours fantasizing about traveling to strange lands and solving the world’s problems, winning over both people and animals.
My husband and I met in Johannesburg and we have two amazing children. Watching them grow is an incredible blessing. They have taught me so much and they are constantly surprising me! Among the treasures I hold closest to my heart are the cherished moments reading stories and sharing quiet moments at the end of a busy day.
In 2022 we moved to Canada and I had the opportunity to work on my dream of writing children’s books. We have settled in a quiet neighborhood which is home to rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks and birds. I am fortunate to be surrounded by beautiful forests, lakes, gardens and an abundance of ever-changing beauty.
I feel the most alive when I am writing, spending time with family, or exploring nature.
My books are inspired by nature
Through my books I wish to encourage children to connect with the world and develop a deep appreciation of our environment.
