THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT, DEAR READERS! I COULDN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU ALL! ;)

Born in Quebec, Canada from French speaking parents, I have an unconditional love for languages (I speak French, English, Spanish and Portuguese), nature, gastronomy and literature. My passion for writing first manifested at age 13 when I wrote my first poems to describe my feelings of alienation from the other kids my age.  

I have published three books in French so far:

- A short book of poems written after being the victim of a rape (La hantise du secret : poèmes écrits suite à un viol);
- A memoir dealing with my childhood, my anorexia and difficult relationship with my mother, (Larmes d'espoir : Une adolescence brisée). I received very good critics for this book, which is being sold in Canada, France, Belgium, Switzerland, Togo as well as some francophone stores in the U.S and the U.K.
- An anthology of famous and less famous fairy tales (Il était une fois...Une anthologie de contes merveilleux).

My name was featured in several magazines, namely L'Express Toronto, Hollywood and Vine Magazine and Le Cliché in Togo.

In 2005, I participated and won a poetry contest in college which enabled me to receive a scholarship to pursue my studies.
