About
the Author

NATIONALITY
AND CULTURAL CONNECTIONS: I'm a true
blue Aucklander, born and bred in New Zealand. I tend to write about cultures I
have connections to, such as Croatian and Maori. I would love to visit Croatia
again as I have family there. However, in My Masters' Nightmare, I have started
writing about Italians . My husband is part Italian and I also have a degree in
Italian.

SPORTS: As a teen my favorite sports were karate, badminton, and
running. I also did unarmed combat and played in a touch rugby team (my gym
teacher made me do the last one!) Now, I stick to coaching soccer and running.
I have completed two marathons, numerous half-marathons and one 30K run.

CAREER PATH: I started off as a Graphic Designer, then went to
Auckland University, where I got a BA degree in Art History and Italian Studies
and a post-graduate Honors degree in Art History. I worked in the Art History
field, then became a full-time artist, doing commissions. I eventually lost all
of my senses and gave it up to be a poor, starving writer, smh.

FAVORITE FOODS: I'm vegetarian. I love pasta based foods, tofu,
chocolate mousse and golden queen peaches.

BAD HABITS: I'm a major procrastinator that can't seem to earn
money to save myself!

STATUS: Married to my high school sweetheart (which he hates me
calling him). We have two kids.
