Matilde Haagensen

I'm an Asian Canadian writer with a passion for telling real stories rooted in truth, emotion, and lived experience. A newcomer to the literary and film world, I recently completed my first short novel and screenplay—proof that boldness begins where comfort ends.

As a mother of two, I find inspiration in the everyday and strength in the unknown. Whether I'm exploring the outdoors with my family or diving into creative projects that challenge me, I'm driven by a desire to grow, express, and connect. Writing a book once scared me—so I did it. And I'm just getting started.
