Natalie Virginia Lang is an educator and writer, living on Sumas Mountain in Abbotsford.

It is from this place where her first book, Remnants, unfurls. She ambles about her property and the mountain beyond, musing to the rocks, trees, and numerous creatures that call them home.

Lang is passionate about the environment and is dedicated to the preservation of natural spaces, wherever possible. It is this dedication, amidst a global pandemic, catastrophic fires and floods, decimation of forests, and ever encroaching humanity on spaces necessary to mitigate these catastrophes, that inspired her to write Remnants.

Lang holds a Master of Arts degree from Simon Fraser University where she won multiple awards, including the Jean-Jacques Rousseau Award, the Julie Andreyev- Animal Lover Scholarship, the Ewan Clark Memorial Award, and a Graduate Fellowship. She also has a degree in Literature and Anthropology from the University of the Fraser Valley and an Education degree from Simon Fraser University.

Lang is a creative writing and social justice teacher at Rick Hansen Secondary in Abbotsford.
