Welcome, and thank you for being here…

Music, writing, and dance have always been my sanctuary—ways for me to navigate life’s twists and turns. Alongside these creative outlets, a deep foundation of spiritual practices from an early age have continuously guided me. I believe that we all have the ability to cultivate peace and joy with what nature has given us, no matter our level of experience. Your voice, your body and your expression are all unique and beautiful to you.

I grew up in an alternative community just outside of Vancouver, Canada, where freedom from conventional expectations was woven into the fabric of my formative years. Spiritual concepts and practices were shared freely and openly. This upbringing gave me an outsiders perspective into mainstream culture. When I was younger this could at times feel isolating, but over the years, I have witnessed a shift in cultural consciousness that has expanded in beautiful ways. Holistic practices such as Yoga and meditation have become mainstream, and the concept of healing and therapy are embraced and accepted.

I moved around a fair bit when growing up and never felt like I quite “fit in” at the schools I attended. It was only when I entered further education at University, that I began to truly engage with and enjoy education. My love for ideas, art, and culture inspired me to earn a degree in English Literature with a heavy emphasis on academic arts. I developed a passion for critical thinking. storytelling and the arts as a path towards inspiration and expansion.

Throughout this time I also explored different forms of music, from playing in a Javanese Gamelan orchestra, freestyling alongside DJ’s in clubs, and taking lessons in vocal jazz. All the while, I worked part-time jobs in bars and restaurants to help finance my university education and musical training.

I became fascinated with archetypes and symbolism across cultures, exploring how we create and express meaning in the world, and how these universal patterns deepen our connection and trust with life. These themes continue to inspire me and are the foundation to my creative and healing offerings.

In 2010, a pivotal moment in my creative journey arrived when I signed a publishing deal with renowned music publisher BMG Chrysalis. This opportunity allowed me to further explore and refine the art of songwriting. I feel so lucky to have worked with some incredibly talented people in the industry, and to have shared my music with a wider, global audience. This chapter of my life was invaluable in shaping who I am today.

Like many, I have faced a range of challenges. I’ve felt disconnected, overwhelmed by unprocessed trauma, personal grief, and a relentless pressure I put on myself to “succeed”. I have danced with addictive behaviours, depression and anxiety. I coped by swinging between extremes: a chaotic, hedonistic lifestyle followed by rigid routines.

These days, I feel a greater sense of peace and relief. Through a range of therapeutic and holistic practices I have found healing and integration of these life experiences and shadows within.

Life still presents challenges, but I approach them with greater awareness and kindness. I’ve learned that peace and joy aren’t found in extremes or perfection—they’re cultivated from deep within.

I invested my time and resources to train and become a certified Nada Yoga (Yoga of Sound) teacher and an Integral Sound Healing facilitator. The tools I learnt over these years of training empowered me to create deeper healing spaces for myself and others.

In 2019, I became a mother, which added a completely new dimension to life, further strengthening my commitment to being the healthiest version of myself. I strive every day to do my best so I can offer the best version of myself to this beautiful being that is dependent on me.

I offer soothing spaces through sound baths, holistic workshops, conscious dance, and bespoke events—places where you can relax, release, and connect with your peace and joy. I also have a range of music and meditation releases for you to tune into anywhere, any time.

Let’s explore the magic of sound together, as we celebrate this beautiful, joyful dance of life!
