Plot twist! My brain has pivoted from push-ups to plot twists. Best known until now as a seniors’ fitness expert and founder of The Move More Institute™, I have been featured on CBC Radio, CTV Morning Live, Thrive Global, and other outlets that suggest I know what I'm talking about. My wellness motto is and always will be, “Move more, feel better.” These days, I'm adding a new motto: “Sip tea, pet cat, solve fictional crimes.” Here's a short recap of me. You can also see testimonials and past events. 

The Mystery Author
I write cozy mysteries that let you escape into a world of quirky villagers and mysterious herbs. In addition to my nonfiction works and my first novel, Selfried and the Secrets, I am thrilled to introduce The Catmint Chronicles—my first (but certainly not last) cozy mystery series to burst forth from my ever-scheming grey matter. 

The Health Advocate
Before I started plotting fictional mysteries, I spent years dedicated to preventing real-life falls. As the Founder of The Move More Institute™, I have helped seniors and office workers alike improve their wellness and independence. My mission is simple: to help you add more movement to your day.
