Institution/Business Type: Artist / Creative (Individual)

I help adventurous people explore and fulfill their creative dreams through ๐ŸŒฑ Grow Your Whole Voice ๐ŸŒฑ coaching, workshops and immersions. 

I define Whole Voice as the Real and abundant expression of whatever we need to share in the world: speaking, singing, songwriting, music production, filmmaking, drawing, painting, poetry, dancing, activism, blogging, community service, entrepreneurship... and all the rest of the magical possibilities โœจ

And after decades of consulting and collaborating on other people's projects, I'm sharing my own Whole Voice!

My music, words and vision connect the personal to the potential through my art-site ๐ŸฆŠ

***

The inspiration I'm most enchanted with is that when we're all deep into that passionate place of growth and learning in our Whole Voices, our combined vibrations-- physical, emotional, spiritual-- have a greater potential for making positive, healthy change than we could each germinate on our own. It thrills me to find more and more people ready to join in this Power.

As a neurodivergent, pansexual femme from white Suburbia, my Whole Voice activation and authenticity have been hard fought and won-- mostly through battles with myself! Through sound vibration and creative expression I'm reclaiming parts of my soul from the bizarre cultural territories to which I outsourced them in the first place.

Every moment along the way of my lifelong stretch towards deeper health and Wholeness, my motivating mission has been to lift up the voices of people marginalized within my communities. I've helped countless other artists, activists and youth connect and share with the world more authentically through their unique Voices. In this work it's been my greatest joy to support the world's ongoing movements towards greater integrity and justice, within a variety of growth-edge contexts like youth leadership programs, prison education systems, empowerment projects for women and femmes and more.
