When I set out to launch my own publishing company, I knew the name had to mean something. Not just to me, but to the stories I tell, the values I hold, and the readers I hope to reach. It had to be personal. Powerful. True. And so, OceanStorm Publishing was born—a name inspired by the middle names of my two daughters, and by everything they represent.

This book marks the culmination of an adventure that has spanned three novels, bringing together all the twists, challenges, and victories that my characters—and my readers—have been waiting for. 

Whether I’m explaining how a book goes from idea to print, or diving into the big themes behind my A Stellar Purpose trilogy—environmental protection, animal rights, social change—what I love most is the spark of connection when students realize they can do it too.

I’m beyond thrilled to share that A Stellar Purpose II has been recognized by Reader Views in three award categories! This recognition means so much to me as an author committed to writing with both heart and purpose.

The blend of fantasy and real-world issues sets this book apart from typical YA fiction, making it a thought-provokind and educational read.

SesayArts wrote a profile on me and my novels. What an honour!

Join me on March 17th at 2pm at The Ottawa Bagelshop as I launch my second novel, A Stellar Purpose II.

Dropped off copies of both my novels at several local bookstores!

I had the honour of joining two local authors as we chatted with Alan Neil of CBC Radio’s All in a Day to help promote a new speaker series.

The second novel in the A Stellar Purpose trilogy is now available for preorder!

Let me know which cover you prefer for my sequel — A Stellar Purpose II.

I’ve spent the past three weeks working with my editor on my sequel. If all goes well, A Stellar Purpose II will come out in early March!

I was on local TV chatting about A Stellar Purpose. What an awesome experience! Check it out YouTube.

My first year as a published author, and what a year it was… Thanks to all my friends, family and fans for your continued love and support.

Thanks to everyone who joined me on Aug 20 at Perfect Books! If you missed the event, they still has a few signed copies on hand.

I recently signed a contract with Koehler Books to publish the sequel to A Stellar Purpose. A Stellar Purpose 2 is coming soon!

I had an amazing time at my book signing this weekend. Thanks for the warm welcome Singing Pebble Books!

I’m so happy to announce that my debut novel is the Gold Winner in the Young Adult Fiction-SciFi category of the 2023 Nautilus Book Awards.

An elementary teacher studied A Stellar Purpose in her class and her students completed an evaluation based on my story. How cool is that?!

Thanks to my family and friends who showed up at my first-ever book signing. Your love and support mean the world!
