About Me
My understanding of time, embodiment, and being human is intergenerational, rooted in lineage, Love, and the pulse of the ancestors. I come from people who endured the systemic relational ruptures of enslavement and colonialism - patterns of disconnection, mistrust, and abandonment. And yet, across generations, Love persisted. Our desire to reach for one another could never be extinguished. My journey in this body, in this lifetime, would not be possible without those ancestral efforts made in Love.
Along the way, I’ve encountered moments of profound spiritual awakening, experiences in which my body, my ancestors, and Spirit moved together in ecstatic remembrance. These experiences showed me, in the most embodied way, that healing, knowing, and transformation are inseparable from pleasure, joy, and the wisdom of lineage. They inform everything I do: the questions I ask, the spaces I hold, the practices I trust, and the relationships I nurture. You can read more about one of these experiences in my experimental narrative prose piece, published in Same Faces Collective.
Discovering myself as highly sensitive, neurodivergent, and fully embodied became a doorway back into the aliveness of my body, the currents of my knowing, and the ecstatic, sacred pleasure of my ancestral self. I now move with the awareness that the body, the heart, and the nervous system are portals, responsive and radiant, to wisdom, healing, and reunion with Life itself.
I believe that Love is the truth of who we are, and the truth to which we return when we dissolve and reintegrate everything that tried to make us forget. My work is about midwifing this remembrance and return, helping others encounter themselves fully, and guiding them through a cyclical process of dissolution, surrender, and reconstitution. A breaking open that is held by Love itself.
I am a bridge between the material and the spiritual, a holder of space for the seen and unseen. Through tender but piercing questions, sensory and extrasensory attunement, and compassionate care, I help people move closer to the root, to the truth, and to the pleasure of simply being alive.
I walk in dialogue with lineages of Black feminist thought, queer love, politicized somatics, and Earth-rooted spirituality. I honor the teachers, healers, collaborators, comrades, lovers, friends, ancestors, and guides who have supported me and whose wisdom continues to shape my work.

A little more of my journey
I come from a background in the arts, higher education, and community-based facilitation. For over a decade, I worked with artists, students, and cultural workers to study and shape liberatory stories and practices. I achieved much. But no amount of accomplishment could soothe my deepest ache - the longing for a love that I thought was always just out of reach.
Discovering myself as highly sensitive and neurodivergent was the turning point. What once felt like “too much” became the doorway back to myself.
For years, I tried to toughen up, to numb my tenderness. But sensitivity has a way of speaking louder the more we ignore it. Eventually, I let the grief of separation break me open. And in that opening, I met myself. Spirit met me.
Through tending to trauma, reclaiming my voice, and remembering my worth, I came to see my sensitivity as my greatest gift. My way of feeling the emotional currents of others, the energy of a room, and the tender wounds behind even the harshest behaviors.
I now know: we are all vessels for Love.
And I understand that even the sharpest political theory cannot liberate us if we refuse to touch the body, the emotional, the relational. The deep repair that this time calls for means tending to the nervous system, opening the heart, and restoring our intimacy with Life, with Love, with Earth, with Spirit.
My journey has been a slow and sacred reweaving of body and mind, intellect and intuition. Less about external titles. More about internal wholeness.
MY METHODOLOGY
Everything I do centers relationship - to self, others, Spirit, the land, and the ancestors. Healing is somatic, relational, and spiritual. We reclaim our bodies, our desires, our erotic and ecstatic intelligence, and our capacity to know and be known.
My methodology blends:
Embodied practices: somatic attunement, intuitive movement, and sensory awareness
Ancestral and cosmological guidance: listening to the wisdom of lineage, Spirit, and the land
Creative and ritual practices: writing, ceremony, and pleasure-centered expression
Relational inquiry: deep dialogue, attunement, and co-creation
These practices are informed by my own lived experience, my study of African-centered epistemologies, and the ancestral, scholarly, and spiritual lineages I hold in trust. Each session, conversation, or facilitation is a portal to remembering your belonging and reclaiming the sacred pleasure, joy, and aliveness of your life force.
I’m trained in high sensory coaching through the Inluminance High Sensory Specialist program. I also have a background in trauma-responsive care and liberatory education. But, more than anything, I’m shaped by my own journey of returning to myself, and the relational containers that have held me in that process.
