When she's not recovering from a self-induced book hangover, Amanda Jayatissa wears many hats. She runs corporate trainings on Communication Skills Development and serves as the Chief Taste Tester at the cookie shop she co-owns. Having grown up in Sri Lanka and lived in the California bay area and British countryside, she eventually moved back to her sunny island. There, she resides with her husband and two Tasmanian-devil-reincarnate huskies.
