Litea comes from a very big Samoan aiga (family) with lots of nieces and nephews and plenty of siblings and cousins. Growing up in a big aiga meant she had lots of adventures and was never short of someone to play with but, on the flip side, she also had to ensure she was being heard above all the commotion! Her first picture book, White Sunday, was illustrated by Myo Yim.
Litea lives with her partner and her cat, Gordon, in Brisbane, and works in health care.
