New Video: A Pause, A Return, & New Creativity
I took a few weeks away from social media and YouTube to pause, reflect, and recharge. Now I’m back!! I am ready to create, share, and explore ideas with authenticity and joy. Pauses aren’t setbacks; they’re preparation for what comes next. Here’s to creating again, fully and intentionally. Continue reading

Breath of Ink
Ink becomes my breath, between the dust and the stars I dissolve in thought. Continue reading

Bracing For Fall
When I was little, every season in Washington carried its own kind of magic. Summer was blackberry stained fingers and stubborn sunsets that lingered long after bedtime. Spring was cherry blossoms scattered across wet sidewalks, tulips rising out of soggy earth. Winter was snow on the Cascades, holiday lights against dark evergreens, breath curling white Continue reading

The Pacific Northwest: A Place That Feels Like Soul
What I love most about living in the Pacific Northwest is the way contrasts coexist, not as opposites, but as complements. On the horizon, Mount Rainier rises with a kind of silent majesty, its presence steady and almost mythic. Even when it hides behind clouds, I can feel it there, like a secret guardian watching Continue reading

Crossing Thresholds: My First Taste of Japanese Curry
I am not Japanese. My blood is German and American, stitched together across continents, languages, and histories. And yet tonight, standing in my kitchen, I found myself making Japanese curry for the very first time, a dish I had never even tasted before. Cooking it felt almost like crossing a threshold, as though I were Continue reading

Moonlight
I don’t wait for him. But I notice when he’s gone. Some nights, his light brushes my skin, and I pretend it’s enough. We never speak. But I look up, and he looks back. That’s all we ever do. And somehow, it feels like everything. Continue reading

Little Jeweled Angel
You came in like a giggle draped in gemstone light, emerald, turquoise, purple flame, all stitched into your wings like some sky-born crown designed by mischief and moonlight. You weren’t flying, you were flirting, circling me like a secret, like you knew I needed to be reminded that joy still has wings. A little jeweled Continue reading

A Day at the Lake: Summer Stillness at Fort Steilacoom
Some days just ask you to slow down. Not because you’re tired or overwhelmed, but because the air feels different. Softer. That was today. Chewy and I went for a walk at Fort Steilacoom Park, one of those places that always helps me come back to myself. The breeze was light, the sun was warm Continue reading

The Goddess, Unveiled
I move like honey in the heat, A rhythm slow, a pulse beneath. My skin holds dusk, my breath is wine, The curve of want, the edge of time. I do not beg, I do not chase I summon with a softened face. The world leans in to taste my flame, And whispers low… she Continue reading

I’ve Been Fooling Myself
For a long time, I told myself that my wardrobe reflected who I am. That it held memories, identity, intention. I believed that holding on to every color and every ‘maybe someday’ piece meant I was being resourceful, expressive, even sentimental in a meaningful way. But I’ve been fooling myself. The truth? Most of those Continue reading

Jodi Arias: The Horrible, Twisted Shadow INFJ
Disclaimer I want to be crystal clear before we begin: I do not support, excuse, or justify what Jodi Arias did. Her actions were horrific and inexcusable. This piece is a reflection on the darkest corners of the INFJ personality -the shadow self – and how, in rare and tragic cases, it can twist into Continue reading

🌿 I Made a Video About Letting Go
I recently filmed a video about something that’s been unfolding quietly in my life: The slow, personal process of letting go. Letting go of isolation. Letting go of second guessing myself. Letting go of the things I carried for so long, I forgot I could set them down. This isn’t a “how to.” It’s a Continue reading

Cleansed: A Meditative Water Journey
Filmed in black and white, Cleansed is a meditation on renewal. It begins with light, with dryness, with restraint. And slowly, quietly, it unfolds into something softer, wetter, and more vulnerable. The water falls not just on my skin, but through the layers of armor we so often wear in this world. As the droplets Continue reading

She Walks in Light Unnamed: Becoming Something Wild and Beautiful
I didn’t know exactly what I was making when I started filming this. I just knew I wanted it to feel like something whispered, like a dream or a spell or a memory I hadn’t lived yet but missed anyway. I went out into the grass in the late afternoon, barefoot, wearing a green dress Continue reading
