Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To continue to excavate my heart and soul for the clarity to love, educate, inspire and transform myself and the world around me into a sustainable, beautiful place for all beings, past, present and future.
ABOUT ME
I am, as one of my best friends Ricky calls me, a "gypsy pixie cutiepants hippie monster" and I would have to agree with him! I am small, sparkly, cheery and whimsical. I love to dance to just about anything, including the wind or the ocean, and adore meeting new people, animals, and enjoying the amazing synchronicity of life. I enjoy being able to fit everything I own into the back of my Subaru station wagon, just in case. I have been an actress for most of my life and am transitioning into becoming a Waldorf teacher. I look forward to adventuring and sharing stories with you!
PHILOSOPHY
The good news is: WE are not humanity. We are only one culture of humanity, of which there are thousands of cultures who have lived in harmony on this earth for so long. We must find a new a new vision, not new programs to fix the old vision, the vision that says this world was made for humans and their blatant domination of it. It won't be easy to transform, but it's possible, and I believe we can do it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
After discovering bio-luminescence in the sand of Bay Ocean Spit in Oregon, I and 5 other friends simultaneously stripped all of our clothes off and ran screaming like banshees into the freezing Pacific Ocean in September. The phosphorous was in the water too, and we splashed around like mermaids and mermen, completely oblivious to how cold we were because we felt so alive. We howled at the moon to affirm the gift, and I smiled until my face hurt.
