Born and raised in the Seattle, WA area, I have always been analytical, athletic and artistic; yet I never thought of myself as intuitive. Until now, that is.

After taking classes at the Maitreya Seattle Healing and Learning Center, I was able to open myself up to my natural intuitive abilities. I have studied Astrology under both Margaret McElroy and Carol Barbeau. The information that I learned from these teachers, combined with my own intuitive abilities is where my perspective on Astrology was formed.

A Cancer myself (4 planets in!), I have always been a sensitive person, what I didn't understand that this sensitivity was also my intuitive guidance coming in. Let my sensitivity work for you to give you some insight and help you find some answers and guidance.

I also use my artistic ability for healing with the use of color and design of mandalas.  Mandalas are an ancient artform that can be used for meditation or to energize the chakra system. The circular design of both astrology chart and mandalas show us how life is a continuum, with no beginning and no end and how every thing is connected.
