Hello! Thank you for being here and wanting to know more about me!
I am a genderqueer/non-binary trans (afab) being who is a gloriously fat, neuroqueer, kinky, polyamorous relationship anarchist, queer witch. I hold white American and middle class enculturation. My ancestors primarily came from Northwestern Europe; they were mostly Scottish, English, and Irish with some German, French (Canadian), and Eastern European in the mix as well.
I work on the unceded Duwamish and Coast Salish land (so-called Seattle), live and work on the ancestral lands of the Noo-She-Chatl band of the Squaxin and Nisqually Tribes at the base of the Salish Sea (so-called Olympia), and grew up on the Tlingit and Haida land of Southeast Alaska.
In 2011, I began facilitating classes, workshops, and sacred sexuality temples around the Pacific Northwest. Shortly after, in 2013, I received my Certification in Sexological Bodywork and began working with clients, supporting clients in finding a greater experience of self-understanding, pleasure, and embodiment through understanding that we are nature embodied. In 2015 I received my self-designed Master’s degree from Antioch University Seattle in Sacred Erotic Psychology. My Master’s Thesis was focused on the understanding of the Self through the alchemical erotic union of the individual soul-spirit-body with others and the world.
Since 2015 I have been working regularly one-on-one with clients in person and virtually to support
As a student and practitioner of magic and witchcraft for nearly twenty-five years, I have a love of bringing the sacred and ritual into all aspects of my life and work. My magical praxis focuses on Astrological Magic, Queer Erotic Witchcraft, and practical and spiritual Alchemy. I’m a member of the Seattle temple of The Fellowship of the Phoenix, a queer hermetic neopagan tradition and non-profit. I am also an initiated Adept of the Open Source Order of the Golden Dawn, though that order is now closed and I would no longer consider myself primarily a ceremonial magician, it still deeply influences my magic and work.
I started seriously studying tarot and astrology around the same time as magic and witchcraft, though I began my relationship with them when I was around eight years old. I have casually been giving readings to friends and lovers since I took my first year-long astrology course in 2004, and I began offering readings professionally in 2018. I have completed coursework for Austin Coppock’s Fundamentals of Astrology Course Years I, II, and III (final Grad Project in progress) and have attended classes and courses with Kelly Surtees, Demetra George, Bernadette Brady, Chris Brennan, and many others.
Before all else, professionally and personally, I am dedicated to liberatory, anti-oppressive healing work utilizing somatics, ritual, psychedelics, and pleasure. I believe that we have an innate ability to heal ourselves if we can trust our bodies and get out of our own way. Healing, in my lexicon, means tending to our bodies, emotions, and relationships from a place of dignity and respect. Healing looks like increasing capacity to give and receive love, connection, and belonging.
