23 Apr Canada Book Day 🇨🇦

Outside of my 9 to 5, I’m a proud children’s book author—and today, on #CanadaBookDay, I’m excited to celebrate Canadian storytelling! 🇨🇦📚

My two books, Little Voice and The Lighthouse, are both proudly Canadian and available online and at retailers like Indigo. Writing these stories has been more than a creative outlet—it’s also shaped who I am as a leader. Storytelling plays an important role in leadership, even if you don’t realize it. As leaders, we tell stories when we explain the “why” behind a strategy, when we share lessons learned from past experiences, or when we highlight the impact of a team’s work to motivate and build morale. A good story can build trust, humanize data, and make complex ideas relatable.

My love for storytelling therefore finds itself in all that I do, both as a leader and a children’s book author! And today I invite you to discover the stories I’ve written to help promote a growth mindset in kids, as well as start the conversation on mental health at home and in the classroom.
