Sheila Busteed is a freelance writer, teacher, journalist, photographer and designer who possesses a deep connection to music.

Sheila is an avid traveler, and the creation of Sunsets in Oia took her back to the island of Santorini for a writing retreat in May 2012.

After nearly a decade in Canada’s capital, Sheila moved to South Korea to begin a new career as an English teacher. After eighteen months, she uprooted again to teach in Morocco for two years. Currently, Sheila resides in Spain as she works on earning her Master's degree in TEFL. She spends much of her spare time writing and traveling.

In September 2014, Sheila returned to Santorini for a third visit. During her stay, she did research for her second novel and continued to explore the beautiful island.
