about me

I am devoted in the heart to compassionate care for all mothers and mother earth - with ancestral practices, earth based wisdom, and creativity as roads to integrated wholeness.

As an artist and tender of the birth continuum, living in the Pacific Northwest nourishes my work deeply. Through the accessibility to a well spring of healing nature, my work and my heart continually renew. I am blessed to be steeped in the most beautiful communities and networks of people who devote their paths to humility, wisdom, holistic medicine, and spiritual wellbeing. with the rainfall, moss covered forests, and dynamic seasons here, I find inspiration for my paintings and earth based pottery. Each brush stroke, clay form, and colored texture is born from hours spent in the forests and by ocean sides. Through wonder, gratitude and curiosity, I am inspired by the nature around me and pour that into my works of art. My intention in sharing my creativity with you is to invite deeper stillness, appreciation, and accessibility to the healing power of nature in your own life.

The seasons of this land offers me an intimate relationship with the cycles of life. Letting go, dying, freezing…then thawing, rising up, rebirthing, and blossoming are all vital parts of nature’s wholeness. Of a woman’s wholeness. The cycles of the seasons teach me so much about the purpose of our pain and the blooming light that is inevitable too.

I have felt very connected to the need in our culture for more postpartum support since I was a young child. My own mother had six children after i was born. I am honored to have been a part of my little siblings development as well as my mother’s postpartum healing many times. Seeing community come together to breathe warmth into her life, breathed warmth into ours. Community support made a huge difference in our ability to grow as a family, amplify joy, and tend to our warmth, our vitality.

For the past six years, I have cultivated relationships with many mothers and families through nannying, nourishment through nutrient dense foods, emotional support, and closing of the bones ceremonies. I am very content in my path as I continue to grow into being a caring, consistent pillar of support for my community. By supporting women, new mothers, and families I see a more sustainable, well, loving planet being cultivated.

I see my gifts highlighted and amplified in the postpartum space, where time melts and hearts open between sleepy gazes of love and wonder. Mothers need rest and nourishing, warming foods specific to the healing period. This is a part of the work that enlivens me. I am an alchemist in the kitchen.

I practice care that honors each part of a person as they integrate and heal. The body, the spirit, and the mind. No matter how a pregnancy ends, whether the birth of a new child, an intentional pregnancy release, or a miscarriage, I support you in your journey of integration, healing, and expansion. I am beside you as you walk your path and journey with your womb’s cycles.
