edit data

Before embarking on her writing journey, Gillian earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Science Education. She worked as a high school science teacher, eager to show students they can both excel as science and math geeks as well as literary enthusiasts.

When she’s not writing, she’s either studying Chinese or on a mission to explore all the local coffee shops a place has to offer. She has a passion for language and linguistics, an ever-increasing travel itch, and would live almost anywhere in the world for a year.

Gillian lives with her partner, Zachary, and their three pets: doggo, Laika, and two kitties, Hammy and Evie.
