Welcome to my website. As a freelance writer, I have sold more than 170 articles, mostly about travel, history and the arts. My work has been published in Avenue, Canada’s History, History Magazine, Country Connections, VIA Rail Magazine, etc. My column “Collecting Museums”, which features interviews with Canadian curators, has appeared in Canadian Antiques & Vintage Magazine since 2010. I also have 6 years of experience planning and writing articles for a university department website and managing their social media accounts. Currently I am focussing on history and heritage non-fiction articles, and am trying my hand at fiction. I have a degree in English literature from McGill University.
