​I'm a multidisciplinary artist, therapeutic practitioner, & mission driven entrepreneur born on the unceded territory of the Amah Mutsun people in Santa Cruz, California, with ancestral lines from Ireland, Portugal, and a wee bit from England and Germany.​​
​​
​Prior to birthing Embodied Earth Arts, ​I co-founded Ceu do Novo Mundo, INC (aka SacredJourney.Earth) a church non-profit organization that supports the preservation of indigenous wisdom ways, as well as offered 6 years of ceremonial gatherings with the entheogenic Grandmother medicine, Ayahuasca.
​
The power of gathering in circle, in prayer, in song, and in celebration of the full spectrum of our human experience continues to very much inspire my walk and my work. Rather than imbibing psychoactive plants, I now prefer work with the medicine of breath, of voice, of sound, and of the field of energy that is created through our togetherness.
​
I'm so happy you're here.
