About

Through memoir and narrative nonfiction, Chloë writes about landscape, belonging, interior transformation, and the mysteries that shape a life.

Her work is drawn from years spent moving between wilderness, pilgrimage, solitude, and study. After leaving a successful corporate career in project management for hotel development, she spent five years alone in the woods of Virginia sitting on the ground for hours in sustained meditation. She travels regularly to Peru sitting in ceremony with her Indigenous teachers, and deepening her relationship with ritual, sacred landscape, and the ways one can cultivate a sense of belonging in the world.

A dream to live above the Arctic Circle haunted her for nine years, and she was guided to move to Tromsø, Norway, where she completed a Master's degree in Indigenous Studies. While living there, she spent extended periods alone in the wilderness, developing a profound relationship with the northern landscape that continues to influence her writing.

Today she lives on a small Greek island beneath the ancient mountain Xombourgo, with the ruins of the Temple to Demeter behind her house, where she writes about the unexpected paths that emerge when we follow what calls us beyond the lives we planned for ourselves.

Her memoir, Reindeer Belong to the Wind, traces a journey from heartbreak in Baltimore to the Arctic landscapes that ultimately reshaped her understanding of life, love, and belonging.
