About the author

I am a Canadian children's author and presenter. My fiction series for young readers features ecological adventures set in Waterton Lakes National Park. The next book in the series, Fire on the Mountain, will be released into the wild on March 22, 2022.

I also enjoy writing non-fiction and have published over fifty books for students in Kindergarten to grade six. My most popular non-fiction book is a biography of Selena Gomez, the creepiest book is about lice, and the cutest is about black bears. I like to write about science and nature, as well as people and history.

I love visiting classrooms to talk about writing, wildlife and environmental stewardship. Presentations use my books as springboards to dive into these larger discussions with students in Kindergarten to grade six.
