I write fast-paced travel mysteries for late teens/crossover readers who yearn for a brain-tease with a generous serve of romance and spiritual self-discovery! I also love incorporating music into my stories so that my readers get a multi-sensory experience.

​

I'm a globetrotter; I've travelled to 60+ countries and speak near-fluent French. I used to be a high school English literature teacher, and in the past few years I've taught English as a second language teacher to foreigners and migrants, which is a joy!

Back in my 20s I was in the funk rock band Not Quite Velvet and I studied vocal performance and jazz piano, hence the musical aspect of my stories. 

On social media, I love connecting with book and music lovers - they are my tribe! I regularly post eclectic book reviews, literary reels, and curated playlists to engage with like-minded people.
 

I am also a yoga and meditation teacher. I was the Director of Manly Yoga, one of the oldest and most respected authentic yoga centres in Sydney, and I lectured on yoga philosophy for the International Yoga Teachers' Association. 
 

I now live on our idyllic farm "Stag Hill" in Jamberoo, NSW, Australia, the perfect peaceful place to write! I also offer yoga classes and cultural and fitness events to the local community.
