Andrea Martineau is a writer, poet, bibliophile, and phytomaniac with a penchant for heritage buildings and their paranormal tenants. She left her hometown of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan to complete her Bachelor of Arts in English and Certificate in Public Relations at the University of Regina. Since then, she’s completed a Certificate in Entertainment Law from Osgoode Hall Law School at York University and has taken courses in Book Publishing through Toronto Metropolitan University.

Writer & Poet
Her poetry has previously been published and shared in untethered magazine, Blank Spaces, [SPACE], Figroot Press, and The League of Canadian Poets’ Poetry Pause. She now resides on Treaty Four Territory in oskana kâ-asastêki (Regina, Saskatchewan) with her family, rescue cats, Horsfield tortoise, and collection of houseplants, where she is writing her first novel.

Creative Consultant
Andrea has worked in the arts and entertainment sphere since she was a teenager, first volunteering for local literary and music festivals. She’s since worked in event coordination, communications, leadership, soundstage management, and programs at organizations such as Saskatchewan Book Awards, JackPine Press, and Creative Saskatchewan. A few notable accomplishments include co-founding national funder meet-ups for the Craft & Visual Arts, Book Publishing, Digital Game, and Live Performing Arts sectors, being part of the team that brought about the increase in film funding for Saskatchewan’s film sector, and managing grant programs for five creative sectors.

Her experience on “both sides of the application”, writing and public relations training, cross-sectoral creative industry knowledge, and extensive DEI training make her a great fit for grant writing, policy work, program projects, and other creative consulting.
