CURRENT MISSION

Growing roots.

ABOUT ME

I am a dancer, and I am a homesteader. I am an amateur herbalist, an inexperienced gardener, I can and ferment food. I plan to soon plant a fruit tree orchard, get goats or sheep, chickens and bees, and plant a large vegetable garden with my partner. I forage for food. Much of what I do is learning how to become more and more localized in all the material inputs in my life. More intentional, responsible, and respectful in my way of living. You may find me up in an oak tree :)

PHILOSOPHY

Balance has been the theme of my life.

Too much to even begin listing. I love everything that I can enter into and feel and move with or be moved by.

Teach, Learn, Share

Dance is my religion. Especially when involving live music. Connecting with those around me through movement is one of the most liberation, fulfilling and enjoyable things I know. Please, dance with me.

I am working to further my performing skills and creativity. I am learning how to brew beer. I am an aspiring herbalist. I can lead a good Pilates workout. There are all things I'd love to share, either by teaching or learning more.
