CURRENT MISSION

To celebrate life! To adopt 'the beginners mind' and learn from the infinite teachers surrounding me. To continually inspire myself to walk with a courageous and loving heart.

ABOUT ME:

I’ve been living and studying flamenco in Andalucía for the past few months, traveling & playing shows.

Most recent travels were to South India with my husband to conduct independent studies in Performative Mythology and traditional mythtelling arts of Kerala, as well as the regional mythologies of the Dravidian south of India.
I have a great reverence for medicinal herbs and plant teachers and ancient wisdom traditions of our world.
I love and appreciate the folk and contemporary folk-infused world music. Love organic gardening, local arts & counter culture movements, mythopoeic world.

PHILOSOPHY

Love is the highest form of intelligence.
Be the change.
