As a bi/pansexual, polyamorous, trans and nonbinary, kinky, sex-positive, death care professional I’ve had a whole life of challenging and confusing experiences to understand and move through (and it’s a continuous process!) As someone who has also experienced family of origin trauma, LGBTQIA+ identity and family issues, stigmatized death of loved ones, and disenfranchised grief, I also understand just how dark and overwhelming life can feel when we think we are alone. However, working with therapists, peers, and deathcare colleagues has taught me that moving through grief with intention and plenty of community support can be a path to growth.

In all of my work, I am committed to anti-colonial practices and dismantling internalized capitalism. As a recovering perfectionist, I understand firsthand how colonizer ideals can be deeply internalized in how we see ourselves and move through the world. In all of my coaching and education practices, I use a queer-centric, intersectionally informed, anti-racist lens to help us decolonize ourselves and our relationships.
