Paola Kay

Paola Kay was born in a small town in southern Germany. Her love for writing began at an early age but it wasn’t until 2020 that she set out to fulfill her lifelong dream. Her debut picture book, based on her family’s dog, Zorro, was published in 2023. When Paola is not writing, she is a Licensed Respiratory Care Practitioner. She has helped children and adults heal in the hospital setting for over a decade. This work has shaped her writing to contain messages of positivity, resilience, love, and inclusivity. Paola lives in Portland, Oregon with her spouse, kids, and two Boston Terriers.
