Your story is how you share who you are with the world.
My story is one of building courage, finding love, navigating loss and creating beauty.
My work is to combine words and images that meet the world in an offering of beauty.
Let’s rewind to the beginning.
I have always been creative, expressive, sensitive, and intuitive. As a teenager, I felt shy and different because I wrote poetry to express my feelings. Writing and creating nourished me and they still do. I can’t stop from trying to make everything around me beautiful.
Education strengthened my skills and reinforced what I love.
Life is the big canvas, create with intention my motto.
As I woke up, life looked different.
Life can change in an instant (mine did).
I saw my husband in a meditation before we met. I recognized his red beard, bright eyes and warm heart. We both held the same intention: let the person looking for me find me. Our lives intertwined and a shared life and business path began. After a series of synchronicities, we moved to a small city and took over a yoga studio. At each step, I built courage to befriend the unknown and trust in my ability to figure it out as I went.
Business was a crash course in leadership.
Brand school was born.
I loved the creative expression I found in business. At the same time, I had sidelined my own gifts of art-making and creative writing. I told myself that it was necessary, but I walked further from my joy. I took my hard-won lessons and put them into Intentional Brand School. I love teaching creators how to use branding to find success with greater ease.
Loss changed me.
Grief raged a fire through my soul and burnt down everything unnecessary.
I looked around the barren landscape of my heart and, to my surprise, saw that it was ripe with new life.
The black charred soil is sprouting the most unlikely dreams.

What does success mean to you?
Is it time for you step into your fulfillment?
I will walk with you and be the keeper of your story and light. I will support you to feel into the truth of who you are. Together, we will weave words and images that share your beauty and how it meets the world in an offering.
