about me
i am a cosmic contextualizer.
a translator of the languages of consciousness.
an agent for sacred pattern recognition.
a talisman for upheaval.
i primarily use the languages of astrology and human design in my work in all of the above.
i am also informed and inspired by
a traditional background in music and music education (and eight years in public teaching)
a decade+ long traditional yoga practice (and the awareness that developed within it)
focused and in depth exploration of energetic and and channeling practices such as reiki and the akashic records
a lifetime of studying relationships, community, individuality, and the dance amongst them.
i serve emotional provocation, joyful correction of what doesn't work, shatterings, awakenings, initiation, and impact. do not engage with me or with my work if you do not wish to experience upheaval.
my upheaval accelerates your process of coming into radical honesty with your Self.
i am a 5/2 emotional manifestor on the cross of upheaval.

i am essence aries (sun, venus, mercury) with sagittarian insides and outsides (moon, ascendant) ruled by a 7th house (relationally oriented) jupiter in gemini.
My background of singing in choirs and teaching music has instilled in me a deep appreciation for community and the healing that is inevitable when creating with others. Meditation in the form of singing and reading music along with the very real and unfortunate burn out being a full time public school teacher led me to a yoga practice in 2011. Since immersing myself in traditional yoga as a spiritual practice, I have discovered many other subtle healing art forms like astrology, reiki, tarot, and the akashic records.
