ABOUT ME

I am a herbalist who sleeps, dreams, eats, smells, and listens to the call of plants. Gaining a better understanding of empowering individuals to heal themselves through pachamama. My path has lead me on a journey to study with the earth and to keep filling my veins with the pollen of nature. I strive to find teachers who can support me on my spiritual healing quest. I envision finding a ecovillage that is self-sustainable, with like minded community members that can help me create a space for healing and transformation through various healing modalities.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe the political system is oppressive, yet can become a tool to create change. I live my life by gaining inspiration from others and treating each day as a new path that will spread roots deeper into the earth. I believe the key to a healthy relationship is to embrace conflict in order to move forward.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Its hard to narrow this question down to one thing, I feel as though something amazing occurs everyday I step outside my comfort zone. Machu Picchu, and hiking my first fourteener in Borneo are just a few experiences I have had off the beaten path.
