About Me
I am a plant-loving enthusiast, ancestral earth living skills mentor, herbalist, fiber artist, and earth-centered somatic healing practitioner, These days I spend much of my time mentoring youth, playing with animal and plant fibers, studying and practicing herbal medicine, wild foraging, gardening, and living with the land. I am at home in the wild places with my greatest teachers being more than human kin and life itself, as I fully embrace my humanness,.
​
​From a young age, I felt the pull back to revitalizing ancient land stewardship skills in the modern day. For more than a decade, I have devoted myself to earth-centered living, being a part of the earth's seasonal rhythms, and healing through regenerative living and cyclical harvests. I has learned with and from many different herbalists, earth living skills mentors, naturalists, bodyworkers and healers through in depth studies in anthropology, wild basketry, hide tanning, permaculture, animal and plant fiber arts, botany, shamanic healing, western herbalism, folk traditional medicine, plant spirit medicine, body literacy, and training as a certified full spectrum doula putting in thousands of hours of ‘dirt-time’.
I guide people through practicing tangible earth skills, while providing a safe container to heal and remember their innate connection with the beings - plants, animals, fungi - of the land and their own inner wisdom. My embodied connection with the land comes through facilitating workshops and working with people one-on-one. My work in the world is woven together with an additional layer of song, ritual, ceremony, and a deep reverence for the natural world.
