About

I’m a longtime writer with an ardor for exploring the inner landscapes of the soul’s domain. Intertwining themes of wildness and self-exploration, of isolation and yearning, of coming together and then falling apart. I write about the ways the earth’s rhythms, soil, and waters influence our lives and shape the clay of our lived experiences.

My desire to understand life and my reason for being alive, took me to mystical places around the world. I lived in the Arctic Circle of Northern Norway, made pilgrimage to the places of my ancestors, and apprenticed with the shamans in Peru.

In 2010, I founded Explore Deeply. Through my work I hope to inspire more people to listen to their soul’s calling, and cause them to look a little closer at themselves, at the natural environment that surrounds us, and at other people and our beliefs of separation around race, culture, and religion.

I am a certified Native American Healing Arts Practitioner and have a Masters degree in Indigenous Studies from the Arctic University of Norway, where I spent four years researching the sacred landscape of Sápmi, the land of the indigenous Sámi people. I have apprenticed under two indigenous medicine, for more than a decade, learning ceremonial practices from two living traditional medicine paths, one in North America and one in South America.
