Lisa Brideau
Author/Sustainability Specialist
LISA BRIDEAU (‘bree-doe’) was born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada. Her writing is inspired by the ridiculous quantities of science fiction she read during her formative years with a crust of classics and CanLit layered on top.
She has a B.Eng in Aerospace Engineering from Carleton University and an M.Sc in Urban Planning from the University of British Columbia and currently works as a sustainability specialist. When she takes breaks from trying to mitigate catastrophic climate change, she likes to write speculative fiction or practice her waltz. She lives in Vancouver, BC.
ADRIFT is Lisa's debut novel.
