About Me

Long Bio

Tiffany Brownlee was born in San Diego, California, and, as with many authors, her love for reading and writing began at an early age. Because her father was in the Navy, she and her family moved around far more often than she would have liked (she went to five elementary schools–not kidding!), but despite the many moves, her love of education, books, and writing remained.

Her family’s final move brought her to New Orleans, Louisiana, where she went on to earn her B.S. in Psychology at Xavier University of Louisiana. Immediately after graduation, she began work as a Teacher’s Assistant while also pursuing a teaching certification from The University of Holy Cross. These days, she works as a full-time English teacher while simultaneously earning her Masters in Education from Louisiana State University, Shreveport.

Tiffany’s debut YA novel, Wrong in All the Right Ways, which is a modern retelling of Wuthering Heights, was published by Henry Holt Books for Young Readers in 2018 and was featured in both Entertainment Weekly and Seventeen Magazine, which the latter would have had twelve-year-old Tiffany squealing with excitement.

If you couldn’t tell, Tiffany likes to keep busy, and between work, school, and writing, you’d think she runs on coffee, but fun fact: she can’t stand the stuff (gasp!). Whenever she’s not teaching or writing, she can either be found snuggled up on the couch with a YA romance novel or inside a dance studio working on her ballet technique.
