I’m an earthy Pagan Priestess chick. I’m uber-busy and stay active in the causes I believe in and creative projects that keep me sane. I’ve been blogging since 2001, and studying spirituality & health issues for 15+ years.

I recently relocated from Washington DC to Portland, Oregon in July 2009.

Summer 2008, I joined the band Dead Violets as a vocalist and lyricist, part of Zeromoon Records. We are rockin’ out and have been covered by Washington City Paper! (http://www.deadviolets.org/ — http://www.myspace.com/thedeadviolets).

My volunteer activism work with Americans for Safe Access, Maryland chapters included coordinating and appearing on a 1-hour segment on WPFW 89.3fm on Gladys Brooks’ program From The Community on Wednesday March 18, 2009 talking about efforts to improve medical marijuana laws in Maryland.

I was published in Circle Magazine:
- Winter 07/08 issue – an article for my Pagan Activism work, a poem about religious freedom that I wrote,
- Summer 08 issue with a spiritual poem about elementals.

You can hear my 8:30min radio interview about the Challenges of being Wiccan on Interfaith Voices Radio (http://interfaithradio.org/node/152) – a February 23, 2007 interview.

2 weeks after moving to Portland, OR, I got my first TV spot for my Tarot Card readings on KGW Channel 8 news. July 30, 2009: (http://www.kgw.com/video/thesquare-index.html?nvid=385178&shu=1 ) — I’m 2 minutes in.
