I'm a debut author. I was born just outside of Marseille, France. Since 2007, I've been based in leafy Oxfordshire, UK with my family.

After spending most of my working life as a Marketer, educating consumers about the wonders of anything from laundry detergents to honey, I finally decided to put pen to paper to write “stories” of a different kind. Between school pick-ups and whilst also looking after my adorable toddler (who has yet to find a bookshelf he wouldn’t climb), I eventually finished my first book, Of Magpies and Men.

If you'd like to connect with me, I would love to hear from you. Just drop me a line on:
