about

I’m named after a Hindu devi, a luminous goddess of the mountains whose purpose was to harmonize earthly and heavenly energies. True to my namesake I love the mountains and seek a balance of earthly and spiritual existence. I’ve got both feet firmly planted on solid ground, yet reach ever skyward to bring greater beauty to this world of ours. Like yin and yang, I am both serious and playful, reverential and absurd, graceful and totally clutzy. I believe both laughter and grief can be superpowers. I’m a mountain biking, rock climbing, bike racing, meditating, rational mystic ninja yogini for good and awesome.

It’s been said the happiest people are those who live with purpose. But what if have no idea what your purpose is? Are you doomed to misery? And what if you know your purpose but are having trouble figuring out how to bring it to life, take it to market, or are stuck in some way from living your truth?

MY PURPOSE IS TO HELP OTHERS LIVE THEIR PURPOSE. It’s that simple. I do this in one of three ways:

1) I COACH: helping people become unstuck physically, mentally and emotionally and healthier through self-care practices as yoga and meditation. Think of it like coaching meets counseling meets fitness trainer and sports coach.

2) I WRITE: helping others tell their stories and convey their purposeful messages. From magazine articles to web site content to product copy. I’ve written and self-published two non-fiction books, and am working on a third.

3) I CREATE: designing identities, logos, collateral and websites that help others connect with customers and community. I’ve produced images and identities for companies ranging from start-up Mom & Pop operations to international publishers and retailers. Design is communication.

If you have a purpose and need help bringing that to fruition, I can help.

If you have no idea whatsoever what your purpose is, but you’re ready to find out, I can help.

I’m here to help!
