Monica Lamb-Yorski

I have been writing for newspapers since 2001.
A B.C. gal, I was born in Alert Bay, raised in Nelson, graduated from the University of Winnipeg, and wrote my first-ever article for the Prince Rupert Daily News.
In 2011, I joined the editorial team at the Williams Lake Tribune as a reporter. I enjoy both writing about and exploring the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast.
