Tina Costanza
Tina has been writing since her age was in the single digits, having started by writing "sequels" to books she had read.
University, with a bachelor of arts degree in combined/English and psychology, and journalism school, resulting in a print-journalism diploma (with honours) soon followed. Tina now has about 12 years of experience in journalism, which includes stints as a general assignment reporter, copy editor, section editor, and manager of the entertainment and lifestyle sections at daily newspapers. She has worked on stories from 9/11, to the death of a former Canadian prime minister, to the Toronto International Film Festival.
When she's not at her laptop, Tina is on a plane, train or automobile, scratching a seemingly constant travel itch, hanging out with her beloved friends, reading a book, or splicing DNA (OK, maybe not that last part — yet).
