A lover of words and stories, she completed her Master's degrees with distinctions--an MA in English Literature from Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (2010) and an MA in Creative Writing from University College Dublin (2022). Her published work ranges from children's picture stories to prose that explores alternate worlds and realities.
