Exploring is a central theme to my life. It fills my tapestry with many beautiful colors and it is part of my balance in life.

I feel the nudge, “go ahead, see what it’s about”.
Through my explorations, threads are provided that weave my experiences through my life. My tapestry includes lover of nature, dancer, drummer, gardener, sojourner, yoga student/teacher, spiritual companion, therapist/counselor, traveler, Reiki master, healer, bringer of Laughter and light-heartedness, soul artist, cultural explorer, Qigong teacher/practitioner and so much more.
