As a child in Oregon, I was fascinated by dreams, storytelling, and imagination. This led me to meditation at age 10, then to studies in psychology, myth, and ancient cultures. Earning my PhD at the California Institute of Integral Studies, I traveled through India and Asia, immersing myself in global traditions of knowledge and creativity.

I’ve taught in international schools and universities, but my true passion lies in reimagining education as an expansive, transformative experience. That’s why I founded my own learning programs, blending holistic and academic approaches.

Now based in Bali, I teach college-level courses in literature, history, psychology, and language arts while collaborating with educators who share a vision for inspired, experiential learning.
