About Me

I am the keyboardist of Eternal Embrace, a Gothic Doom Metal band that I created in 2002 with my husband Erik. This band is the heart and soul of our combined self expressions and is the completion of my dream of becoming a musician. I am a belly dancer and love this ancient Middle Eastern ritualistic dance which celebrates a womans body as a sensual and powerful art form. I am an artist, I paint fantasy based dreamscapes in oil. And I am sometimes muse to my husbands photographic landscapes. I find that life can be both a hideous expression or a beautiful dream. I try to balance between light and dark and live to the fullest, honoring myself in my time and understanding who I am. I commit poetry to memory, adorn myself in wonderous imagery, make music from the soul and delight in the friendship of others. I feel that I am an old soul, that my place on this earth is full of ancestory, history and the wisdom of the ages. At the same time, I enjoy the simpler things in life, things that are born of the earth that hearken back to a more ancient way of life.
