I am a philosopher, a Gnostic, a burgeoning crone, a writer, an animal lover, a teacher, a student, a fool, neurodivergent, and most of all, a human being on the never-ending quest.

I was born on April 1st in Northeast, Ohio. From 1997-1999 I lived in New Orleans after graduating from Youngstown State University to live with friends and experience life in the Big Easy. I moved to Denver, Colorado in 2000 to attend graduate school at the University of Denver (2005). I fell in love with the state and have lived there ever since. I currently live in Aurora, Colorado with my partner of twenty years with our dog, Loki and our two cats Barnabas and Quatre.
