Paula Kent is a researcher, writer, and lifelong learner fueled by endless curiosity. At the age of fifty-three, Paula discovered her passion for research and writing after leaving the relatively conventional career in retail banking and leapt blindly into the world of academia. Working on her Master of Arts degree at Royal Roads University in Victoria, BC, saw her graduate research project nominated for the 2020 Governor General's Gold Medal Award. Her educational experience sparked her desire to breathe life into abstract academic theories. Moreover, her curiosity about storytelling, travel and transformational events enriching and influencing our lives inspired her to study further.
Paula has lived in Mission for twenty-one years, and this is her first book. You can learn more about Paula through her website www.paulakent.com
