I was born in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, and attended Memorial University of Newfoundland. In 1989, while working in London, England, in the garment industry, I received my MA (MUN). In 2000 I moved to Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

After returning to St. John's in the fall of 1989, I worked in radio as an announcer and as a copy writer before becoming a transcriber, and then an editor, in the Hansard division of the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. Since moving to Charlottetown, I have done freelance writing and editing work. As well, I am a Commissioner of Oaths (conducting Exhibits of Discoveries, transcribing court cases, preparing reports) for a private transcribing service.

I’ve written three plays, three novels and a collection of short stories, none of which have yet been published, though some have won prizes. Reviews and papers have been published or presented, or are soon to be published.
