Tikiri Herath

Biography

Tikiri Herath is the multiple-award-winning Canadian author of the Red Heeled Rebels international thriller novels.

Born on a tropical island in the Indian Ocean, she grew up in Southern Africa, and has lived and worked in Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America.

Starting as a lone immigrant girl with $20 in her pocket, she went on to receive a Bachelor's degree from the University of Victoria, British Columbia and a Master's degree from the Solvay Business School in Brussels, Belgium. For fifteen years, she worked in risk management in the intelligence and defense sectors, including the Canadian Federal Government and at NATO.

Tikiri's an adrenaline junkie who has rock climbed, bungee jumped, rode on the back of a motorcycle across Quebec, flown in an acrobatic airplane upside down, and parachuted solo.

But when she's not writing or plotting another thriller scene, you’ll most probably find her baking in her kitchen with a glass of red wine in hand and jazz playing in the background.
