I aspire to make meaning that builds and sustains our devotion to each other and to the earth. Combining the skills I honed over 15+ years in editorial and content development with my Master’s degree in Buddhism and interfaith spiritual care, my work is devoted to supporting individuals and communities as they nurture their own resources of resiliency and connection.
While I do think credentials can be gatekeeping, here are some communities I am accountable to, degrees and certificates I have worked really hard for, and religious affiliations that define my spiritual point of view.
- Lay ordained at the Brooklyn Zen Center in the Soto Zen lineage of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi and the San Francisco Zen Center.
- Elevated as a priestess in an earth-centered mystery tradition.
- Graduated from Union Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity in Buddhism and Inter-religous Engagement..
- Certified in a 50-hour Movement Chaplaincy program through Faith Matters Network.
- Accredited with 1600 hours (4 units) of clinical pastoral education (CPE) at New York City jails, rehabs, and hospitals through the Association of Clinical Pastoral Education.
- Loved by Bronco Henry, Papi, and KittyKat.
