About me:

I was raised in the mountains of southern West Virginia, as the daughter of generations of folk of deep gumption....coal miners, Scots and Indians that survived and thrived the harsh life in the Appalachians.
 
In my 20's I left the mountains for Virginia Beach on what was to become a grand adventure.  I could be described as a nomadic, gypsy warrior...ballsy even. 

I rode horses in the mountains of my youth, reading National Geographic and dreaming of the big wide world and later rode my iron horse thousands of miles across those same deserts and valleys I'd dreamed of.  Those faraway lands I dreamed of visiting became a reality as I traveled every corner of the US on to Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Canada, Iceland, Japan, Germany, France, Austria, the Czech Republic, and most recently solo to Ireland. 
 
I worked in white collar corporate jobs in banking as loan officer and branch manager, as insurance and real estate agent.  I also made a living as a dancer, cocktail waitress, coffee barista and house cleaner.  
 
I've lived in half-million dollar homes and in roach infested trailers and apartments.  My heart is in farming and raising animals on a sustainable homestead, but city life has it's own beauty.

I've led folks in worship in beautiful churches and auditoriums and I've led yoga practices in the jail I was confined to when my life began falling apart....or falling together…..it’s all in perspective. 

These events shaped me....they've given me knowledge and wisdom....experiences and lessons to share.  They were the catalyst that created a fire in me for change.....a chance to create the life I want to live.  
 
As The Crow Flies.....the crow weaves in and out of time and space, transforming illusions through creativity, problem solving and play.....collecting treasures, baubles and wisdom.....no shortcuts.  

Let's journey together, unravel the mysteries, reclaim, reveal, rebel, rebirth.
