I'm fully vaxxed against COVID.

CURRENT MISSION
To do what my soul directs
To dismantle systems of oppression with the help of my friends - we deserve better.
To enjoy the fuck out of my life
To connect deeply with those who seek connection the way I do
To heal and grow
To travel to where my ancestors are from
To drink all the tea and pet every cat I see.

ABOUT ME
Leftist. Feminist. Educator. Birder. Queer. Avid reader. Artist. Nature worshipper. Animal lover. Musician. Dancer. Lover of Poetry.

PHILOSOPHY
A better world is possible.
Healing begets justice.
“Knowing how to be solitary is central to the art of loving. When we can be alone, we can be with others without using them as a means of escape.” - bell hooks
"Transformation is not accomplished by tentative wading at the edge." - Robin Wall Kimmerer
