My Background

I am living many lifetimes in this one body. I was a highly gifted and extremely sensitive child. I was a debate-obssessed teenager who spent her summers combing through journals on international relations, renewable technologies, and pedagogy. In my 20s, my focuses were transhumanism, hybridity, as well as political science and experimental communities.

Along the way, I worked for a life coach, a filmmaker, and an attorney. I taught adults in many different settings — from the highly privileged and accomplished, to struggling recent immigrants who required bilingual instruction. I’ve designed permaculture landscapes, coached entrepreneurs, and served as the organizer of many kinds of transformative groups.

I’ve often helped shepherd the big accomplishments of others from behind the scenes, simply for the pleasure of helping people shine their gifts into the world.

My purpose is Truth. Truth is health; it’s alignment; it’s love. Part of how I express my purpose is to simply be a bit strange, out loud and in public. To model that it’s wonderful to live outside the box, when we’re authentically called to it. This is how we build the world we want to live in.

My training for the work I offer includes 7 years of deep apprenticeship in Amazonian shamanism(s) and herbalism, 2 years at a Buddhist university where mindfulness and contemplation are woven into every aspect of life. I have a master’s degree in Critical Studies and have studied with thinkers and creatives like Maggie Nelson, Anne Carson, and Steven Taylor.

I play over a dozen instruments, and enjoy weaving sound healing into my work. As a portal worker, I build altars for large events, officiate weddings and life cycle ceremonies, and I serve as a guide both for those who are birthing and those who are dying.

Some of my most rewarding work is helping conscious founders clarify their transmission of self and mission. The multidimensionality of midwifing a new venture into the world — in its highest, most successful form — is a pleasure like no other.

I wear many hats, depending on what is needed, because ultimately I am a conduit for diverse energies and perspectives. As a singular human I am highly educated and insightful. As a multidimensional bridge, I naturally bring many worlds into harmony and simplicity, sometimes simply by existing in a space.

The highest privilege of this work is getting to witness intimate moments of transformation — the heart-shattering awe that shakes a person to the core. I get to hold space for people birthing themselves into their full power. And for that honor, I am forever grateful.
