Canadian-born and Caribbean-raised, Paige Gunning’s (she/her) goal from a young age was to work in publishing. She finally entered the industry in 2018 as a social media coordinator and now works in consumer engagement at Penguin Random House Canada. Paige is also a co-founder of BIPOC of Publishing in Canada, a non-profit collective for Black, Indigenous, and people of colour currently working in the Canadian book publishing industry. When she isn’t online in a professional capacity, you can also find her on YouTube where she furthers the conversation surrounding diversity within publishing and books under the moniker Minimal Bookie.
