CURRENT MISSION

if want good medicine, you got to be good medicine.

ABOUT ME

I'm native (american), Chumash and Osage to be exact. I love my people and culture as well as the culture of the land I live on. I make funky jewelry and clothes and I love to share it. I paint, write (like to perform poetry!)

I'm a nutrition director for a school and I love my job very much. I've recently taken up a little garden, and it pleases me to no end to be a part of my own food.

I am current;y working on my education masters, and just adore children.

I'm an Aquarius, I'm chill and have been told I have a calming vibe....

PHILOSOPHY

the earth.... is sexy, you know?
the way warm breezes blow through soft canyons of buttery grass,
touching only the tips the way a tease would do,
and rifling the hair of it's golden lover,
as she's about
to become...
unglued.
Holding it's sweetest breath an inch from her face,
and blowing out softly in an undulating,
rhythmic pace.

the earth... is sexxxxxy.
a cold river flowing icy and warm all at the same time,
churning beneath the surface
an emcee with the fiercest rhyme,
it's flow brimming with alliteration,
it's flow never suffering stagnation,
the roar deafening with passion and sighs,
the roar misty while sharp,
coalescing with the quietest of cries,
it's flow touching everything in perfect animation
and forcing through canyons
without the slightest hesitation.

the earth, it is a sexy, yah?
I mean, c'mon, it can breathe fire...
it has veins of all molten
writhing through the neck,
eyes of venom burning beneath the surface liquid brown with
greenish flecks,
stifling kisses along the darkest shadows,
plumes of heat rising off it's skin,
taunting curiosity because you just never know when it will
come
again.

the earth... *sigh*... ohh, it's sexy.
it's skin has days when you breathe in and never want to breathe out,
drinking in cupfuls of alternating honey with ginger,
sweetgrass and lavender,
pine and cedar tinder,
salty lickable rocks,
the wafts of roses, coconut and wet moss seeping from her locks,
when you inhale you get drunker than an amber-suckled bee,
cadence upon cadence of silken spun trees,
rain on dry ground after a summer full of drought,
tasting sweeter neither on the inside,
or out.

the earth is damn sexy....

I live my life to see that we are all connected- to perpetuate the idea of global awareness- as well as to gather and pass information/stories/art etc. to bring more beauty to the world, and to help assist in a mass shift in consiousness that seems necessary right about now to keep this ship from sinking.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I feel like I am still waiting for that amazing thing, however, climbing up the back of half dome, witnessing the Traditional Ghostdance was transformative, and helping to start a collective devoted to supporting indigenous culture/ women and rights is it for now...teaching song workshops is pretty amazing too- watching people open up to their selves is such a blessing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can make rad artistic jewelry- and I'm not an ego-nut, so I'll share with anyone who wants to learn! I also make music, and any guests would always be welcome- sharing music is what it's all about- the true indigenous life! There's nothing better than sharing the heartbeat of drums with as many open minds as possible- what a way to feel connected!
