Sanna (pronounced SahN-Nah) grew up in the picturesque, rural Eastern Finland, as the only girl of five children in an imaginative household of a painter mother and a bookseller father.​ A small-town-girl, she learned to love stories young, and she has scribbled them down ever since. She moved briefly to England when she was twenty, and then to the United States, initially as a volunteer missionary guide for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (on the Historic Temple Square in Salt Lake City), and later to study English at the Brigham Young University.

 

Some of Sanna's favorite things are stormy days, bookish pastry shops, ice skating, and getting cozy with a good book. She has a black belt in taekwondo, and she will forever be a horse girl. She lives in the Utah Valley with her husband and their three daughters, and, for a month each year, she stays in Finland.
