About

img_2745

I practice to deepen my relationship to the land, its cycles, and its keeper of traditions and mysteries. My dream would be to build a bath house, a retreat for grounding into the oneness of Pachamama’s womb, and to share practices that mend the parts into One.

I am mama to a luminous starseed, a creative, curious human, a baker, a mama of under the sink worms, a participant of natural cycles, and almost always have something on or around the counter fermenting or drying. Born at a 30°N latitude in Houston, Texas. An alumna of The University of Texas at Austin and The French Pastry School. Most recent baking professionally at El Pan de la Chola in Lima, Peru. Co-creator of Oxheart Restaurant and Public Services Bar. Former director of small details at OKRA Charity Saloon. Author/Co-Artist of The Art of Baking: Oxheart and The Lima Year. Things that help me unravel the riddles of the world: altars, alchemy, alternative economies, biodynamics, ceramics, Apus, zine-making, meditation, spherical movement, sourdough baking and musings on bread.blog, collaborations, conversations on swings, lemonade. I am a collector of shells, rocks, feathers, and seeds.

What took me more than decades to figure out, the universe knew when it birthed me. Definitively a Magnetic Blue Monkey (Mayan), and a Wood Ox. No accident I arrived 5 weeks early.

I allow for something learned every day. I strive to be honest (satya) and compassionate (karuna). I support humans so together we can find our fullest expression of joy (mudita). I pour energy into openings that give strength, creativity, and freedom. I insist on experiencing more everyday awe. I participate in the cycle of lessons. No matter where the beginning and end merge, I breathe inspiration from all times, breathe with gratitude in all spaces, bow reverently or sun salutate a way through, and love endlessly. I expand and contract, exploring a middle way. 

I habitually drink hot tea not hot.
