Evelyn is an artist, writer, and editor living on the unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples.

As if this wasn’t enough schooling to be getting on with, they hopped streams into the Master of Publishing program at SFU. They now work in the editorial department at New Society Publishers.

Evelyn’s first book of poetry was published by Penrose Press. They sell their salvaged art locally and online as Heliotrope Design.
