After graduating from Sarah Lawrence College in the 2000s, Phaea pursued a career in comedy before discovering her true passion for writing picture books. Some of her favorite things to write about are cats, vegetables, big feelings, and pizza.
As a writer with dyslexia, Phaea is proud to demonstrate that disabilities don’t have to stand in the way of dreams. She hopes to connect with kids and adults who think they can’t write—and convince them that they can!
Phaea lives outside of Boston with her husband, two kiddos, two cats, and a 50-pound lap dog named Frieda.
