Photography and writing stir my soul. For me, the two go hand in hand. The majority of my poems have begun with me going out in nature and taking photos. When I’m editing those photos I start to think about how I felt taking them, what meaning they have to me, and the words start to flow. I am a Professional Life Coach with certifications in Therapeutic Art, Happiness, Shamanic Life, and I’m also a certified Relationship Workshop Facilitator. I love helping people.

I spend my free time outdoors as much as possible.
