"Wonderful Experience!"

 A fifth-generation Oregonian, I grew up exploring the beautiful forests and beaches of Oregon with my family. My deep love of nature and the spiritual connection I feel when walking on the beach or in a forest led me to discover my gift for facilitating ceremonies in nature. In 2014, I followed my dream of living at the beach and doing work that I love, and I moved to the small coastal town of Manzanita. I am passionate about planning meaningful ceremonies for my clients in spectacular locations on the Oregon Coast!

Education and Training

 I love ceremonies of all kinds. My professional training and education includes three certificates from the Celebrant Foundation & Institute, including wedding ceremonies, ceremonies across the life-cycle, and ceremonies for healing and transition. I have also completed graduate studies in art therapy and counseling.
