About
Shortest version: I am a speculative fiction writer and psychonaut--bringing awareness to the human condition--and how we must evolve in order to save ourselves and what's left of our planet.
Otherwise:
While others collected obscene amounts Pokemon cards and Beanie Babies, I collected toads and 4-clovers and vocabulary words. (I was too poor for mass-marketed trinkets.)
I won a Philosophy scholarship as a History & Geography major and everyone (including myself) was confused.
As a consequence of these shenanigans, I've developed a dubious affinity for exploring the forbidden. Much of my writing is influenced by the intersections of healing the natural world with a blend of ancestral wisdom and emerging science and technologies.
Things of further note, including hobbies and microcosmic resume:
Daily I drink herbal tea with Eldritch Terrors of all affiliations.
I yap too much about Final Boss Capitalism and how to Exonerate Mother Earth.
Solving vertical puzzles (rock climbing), lifting heavy things (weight training) and body positivity contortion (pilates & yoga) and balancing on a flotation device while paddling (paddle-boarding) are my current favorite ways to move my body.
I enjoy reading obscene amounts of fantasy, science fiction, and am obsessed with botany, wild places and regenerative agriculture--particularly protecting and preserving native plants, heirloom cultivars and their pollinators. Plants and bugs and healthy soil are the key to a sustainable and bountiful future for all.
One day I will own and manage a nature preserve and run a restaurant where all the food is grown right on site, but until then, I will use my voice and words instead to promote this ideological revolution.
In addition to the above, I have dabbled in being a(n): fashion entrepreneur, librarian, bartender, athlete tutor, historian, farmer, forklift driver, nanny and personal chef.
