Stuff Every Coffee Lover Should Know

Hi there, my name is Candace and I’m a writer and illustrator with a passion for storytelling. Above all, I consider myself an unofficial cultural anthropologist. I’m deeply inspired by cultures around the world — by the traditions that define us, the rhythms that shape our days, and the rituals that bring communities together. Most recently, I explored the culture and history of coffee and tea for my first two books, both published by Quirk Books.

Stuff Every Coffee Lover Should Know

Books aren’t my only love as a writer — I especially love writing for the spoken word. Over the past five years, I’ve written more than 35 Sleep Stories for the popular meditation app Calm, which have been read by narrators such as Michael Bublé, Eva Green, Priyanka Chopra, Jerome Flynn, and Rupi Kaur. In 2020, I was also a writer on Calm’s TV series with HBO Max, A World of Calm.

Alongside writing, I’m also an illustrator and visual storyteller. Working in watercolors and acrylic inks, I specialize in illustrated maps, illustrated book covers, and interior book illustrations. I’ve created large-scale murals for global brands such as Google and Uber, and I’ve been featured as a sketch artist in the New York Times. As both a writer and artist, I’m always fueled by a desire to create uplifting, inclusive work that celebrates the amazing diversity of our world.
