Boozhoo, hello! I’m an author, illustrator, and artist from the Red Lake Nation of Anishinaabeg. My literary works include the contemporary romance Native Love Jams (2023), The Good Berry Cookbook: Harvesting and Cooking Wild Rice and Other Wild Foods (2021), the middle-grade illustrated book Gidjie and the Wolves (2020) and Girl Unreserved (2015), a fictionalized retelling of my own coming of age tale. My illustration work includes 3 books in the Minnesota Native American Lives series (2021); as an assistant illustrator of Gaa-pi-izhiwebak (2021); and Gidjie and the Wolves (2020). My short works include recipes, essays, poetry, and short stories. I'm a jewelry maker working in beads and birch bark and some metal work in the past. I live in Duluth, MN with my husband, son, and a turtle.
