After graduating high school she attended the Ontario College of Art. Next she enrolled at the University of Guelph were she obtained an Honours degree in Art History and Political Science.

While working as office manager at a local water treatment company she set her sites on getting a novel published. After entering numerous writing competitions and winning awards she had two of her Romantic Suspense Novels published.
Never one to let the grass grow under her feet it was time to do more travelling so Dianne joined Trust House Sitters. This organizations arranges house and pet sitting services anywhere in the world. This adventure led to Dianne creating a blog post called “twenty years from now”. Found on Google.
