Leeza Jayde is a South Australian poet and young adult writer. She is also an English and History high school teacher with an insatiable thirst for knowledge, and a mental health awareness advocate. Her debut poetry book, While We're Here, is now available on Amazon. When she isn’t mouthing help from beneath a small mountain of essays yet to be marked, she is also an animated creative writing workshop presenter, and an amateur astronomer who seeks adventure in every unexplored nook and cranny she can find. You can find her on Instagram under @leezajaydepoetry or buried in a paperback by the sea.
