: About Me

I am a freelance writer, copywriter and editor living in Toronto, Canada. I have diversified experience writing short stories, fiction,non-fiction, business documents, articles, newsletters, web copy and proposals. My main areas of expertise range from art, psychology and spirituality to natural health alternatives and self-help. Always involved in creative pursuits, I constantly study the impact and importance that creativity has on an individual’s life. Through the years my creativity has taken on many forms including creative writing, painting, photography, music, and sculpting which allows me to offer insight and originality to my work. Adding to my inspiration is my education which encompasses visual arts, psychology, social work and counselling, all of which are often fodder for many of my articles. I am also a partner in Professor Owl's Book Corner whose main focus is to provide specialized information to children and adults with special needs, chronic illness and learning challenges. I am currently co-authoring several books, write monthly inspirational articles and am a producer for Blogtalk’s Radio show Conscious Choices. My goal is to deliver written content that will impact readers in a positive and memorable way.
