About Me

I am in the throes of amazing transformation in my life right now. More and more each day I seem to awaken parts of my spirit that I had forgotten. Like old friends they resurface and I slip into a level of comfort and trust with these new aspects of myself. I am a healer. It is, above all, what I have come into this incarnation to be and do. Ultimately, I am healing myself now. Letting go of old fears and traumas, shedding the skin that no longer serves me, and ultimately does not serve us All. I step away from the vibration rooted in FEAR and move with faith into the vibration rooted in LOVE. I have accomplished a much postponed goal of mine, am now a Licensed Massage Therapist, and I feel the fire inside burning up the past. Time to rise up from those lovely ashes again! A little about me...I love Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Vas, eating mangoes under a starry Summer sky, a good bottle of wine(or two with the right person), sweet syrupy songs of soul,Miles Davis in my ears, a good book,(exploring spirituality and sexuality, and if you think they are separate, you should quit reading this now)... brief encounters with abnormal things,cats that purr in my lap, New Orleans,kissing until my tongue is bruised,coffee, writing, singing for an energetic, delicious crowd, God, orchids, anything associated with vanilla, Massaging the Masses, Magick, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Portishead, Prince, kicking up my heels to good music,chanting, Goddess, Dead Can Dance, cooking and eating incredible food, laughing, singing, did I mention singing?...and all of life's finer things. I could go on, but I'll stop there.I'm a 31 year old Goddess seeking those on their own crazy but holy paths to Divinity. I'm a vocalist and obsessed with music of all kinds. I feel that my purpose in life is to inspire, enlighten, and entertain. My goal is to make people feel exquisite! It is my highest wish to Unify all Tribes of Humanity into a single vision of sustainable living, reverence for the Earth and one another, connection to Sacred Wisdom, and the healing of ALL! We are here to Love, let's remember that and spread it all around! I might be a crazy hippie, but I'm a crazy hippie who's in love with the entire Universe! Dark and light are ONE!
