Bio
I’m an intuitive artist, lifelong spiritual seeker and avid over thinker. The call to write has been coming through for years, but I often send it to voicemail. Perhaps it’s time to stop procrastinating and get on with it. 😉

A Risk Worth Taking
I’ve always considered myself an adventurous learner. The nagging need deep inside me for knowledge and to learn more about the world around me has always been strong. The word strong may be an understatement actually. The hunger to learn inside me is incredibly ravenous and vengeful like a starving shark. In my youth, I was constantly lectured about how curiosity was dangerous and straying too far off the path can get you killed. I listened to these lectures intently, then would ardently disagree. I was always the first to ask more questions and would often stump my teachers to the point of frustration. My family would tell me I was being too nosey and needed to stay in my lane. I was told I was aloof and needed to appreciate the present moment more. I was never content with the present moment though, and was definitely not content to follow along with what I was being told.
