In the second grade I wrote about singing fruit and haunted houses and dreamed of becoming a professional gymnast. When I was 17 an over-consumption of Anne Sexton and Sylvia Plath led to “Toyota Purgatory,” a poem about arguing with dad on the drive to school (teenage suburban ennui!). By 20 I was writing about nightclubs in Paris, then I followed love to Australia where for four years my home office overlooked the ocean.
Now I’m back in Montreal and writing mostly about travel and food. I’ve been published in enRoute magazine, the New York Times’ T Magazine, the Globe and Mail, London’s Guardian newspaper, GOOD magazine, the Sydney Morning Herald, Australian Gourmet Traveller, the Montreal Mirror, Time Out Paris and other places.
