Hello, I’m Leigh!
I’m a writer and poet, born and raised in Canada’s Capital. A former dispatcher and creature of the night, now I’m up with the sun and work as an analyst. I enjoy writing short stories, poetry, picture books, MG novels, and YA fiction.
I earned an MSc in Communication, Behaviour and Credibility Analysis from Manchester Metropolitan University, in partnership with the Emotional Intelligence Academy. I graduated with a BA in Professional Communication from Royal Roads University where I studied language, media, culture, and technology.
I live with my husband and son near an enchanted duck pond and enjoy watching the geese land at dusk.
