Hi! Welcome to my website. I’m a multi-award-winning children's book author from Hong Kong. My books, Can You Hear Me, Daddy? , Can You Hear Me? and Grandma, It's Me! have received the Royal Dragonfly, Readers' Favorite, Indies Favorite, and The Wishing Shelf Book Awards. ​

I was born in Hong Kong but grew up in sunny Brisbane, Australia, where I had Christmas during summer and called everyone 'mate.' I returned to Hong Kong to teach English after graduating from university with a B.Ed in Primary Education (First Class Honours). I also have an MA in English Language Teaching and over fifteen years of teaching experience in primary schools. During those years, I've also been the panel chairperson as well as the head of the English department in primary schools in Hong Kong and Guangzhou.

Even though I had dreamed about becoming an author since I was a teenager, I had not seriously tried to pursue it until I took a break from teaching. It was during the pandemic that I finally made a New Year's Resolution to write and publish my own book. Three months later, I published Can You Hear Me, Daddy? based on my experience of losing my father to terminal cancer. This experience also led me to embark on this journey to help and inspire others to embrace their grief or traumatic experiences and find creative ways to express themselves. I am very passionate about creating stories that are authentic, emotional, and pull at the heartstrings, not shying away from difficult topics such as death or grief. I firmly believe that everyone's stories matter and have the power to change the world! 

Currently, I tutor English for learners of all ages, conduct creative writing workshops, and work freelance as a content writer, editor, and proofreader. (I am also my own website designer, social media content creator, marketing and advertising manager, book formatter, publisher, promoter, personal assistant, coffee maker, storyteller...) When I am not teaching or writing, I enjoy reading all kinds of books and am always looking for more books to add to my overflowing bookshelf. 

If you would like to stay in touch and up-to-date about what I'm working on, be sure to subscribe to my mailing list below! I look forward to hearing from you and sharing more books with you in the future!

If you purchase a copy of my books in any format, please remember to leave an honest review on Goodreads or whichever marketplace you found my book. This would help me a lot as a self-published author! I would also love to hear from my readers directly about what you thought of the books, so feel free to send me an email any time! ​
