Hey there! I’m Hanalee.

I write and illustrate picture books for children. Treasure hunts and memory card games are some of my favourites so of course you’ll find them here too! I love doing art and storytelling workshops.

When i’m not splashing paint on a canvas, you can usually find me making ice cream or up in a tree. I get excited by adventures and exploring the world around me, dogs are my favourite animal, and I could live on watermelon, coconuts, and mangoes.

I believe that everyone has the right to an education, and am passionate about increasing accessibility by gifting free books and workshops to under resourced schools and communities.

Hanalee is the nickname my grandmother gave me, and like her, I am dedicated to supporting my community and inspiring a love of learning for all through imagination, play, and stories.
