but you already guessed that.

I was born in the English countryside,

to a Scandinavian family,

& now live in Canada

on the shores of Lake Ontario.

My debut collection,

‘The Summer & I Keep Secrets’,

is out now.

I write poetry to explore & refine my refections on love, loss, & wisdom.

I’m so grateful that my writing has won multiple awards,

& has been featured on many academic & lifestyle blogs, school & university curriculums.

I work as a fully certified Holistic Life Coach

with a post-grad thesis in Coaching & Mentoring,

& another in

‘Rhythms of Rest’.

My poems are often inspired by

rhythms in nature

-the lake, the stars, the seasons, early mornings & steaming teas -

as well as ordinary moments & objects

that I can squeeze into playful metaphors.

I hope they’ll offer you a mindful moment to reconnect with yourself,

just as they kindly did for me.

Thank you for being here <3 !
