I have a great interest in understanding our connection to all things and to actively  foster an understanding of who we are by interaction with each other and the earth through art, plants, gardening and places in nature. I am interested in helping others to recognize their value, gifts and talents (thus gaining insight into their purpose and giving meaning in life). These insights will  help to open our eyes to the value and magnificence of all life and to value all life even more.
I have a background in Chemical Dependency Counseling and working with people with Developmental Disabilities. I have also worked with men's groups and studied spirituality, myth and ritual as a mode of healing and empowerment. I love therapuetic horticulture and art and wish to expand my activities in these areas. I also practive yoga and Reiki.
