I am passionate about helping people thrive and overcome difficulty. I’m also insatiably curious and creative about what that looks like which leads to a variety of endeavors. Due to the world we live in I can’t do all the things that I would like to which means that what you will discover on this website is a selection of what I think is most important to share with others about what I do in the world.

I’ve been training in this dance form for 7 years – one weekend intensive a month, most months! My partner, Hannah Morris, and I are certified facilitators and are bringing this wonderful way to connect home to Maine.
I facilitate a process of assisted self-discovery with adults and youth one-on-one and in small groups. The work, which draws on my training in Hakomi Somatic Psychotherapy and Mindfulness, can both help you resolve deep emotional hurts and develop your unique gifts in the world.
I have prioritized meditation in my life in a significant way and feel grateful to offer it to others so more can benefit. I teach weekly classes seasonally and lead retreats locally in Waldo County in addition to traveling to teach when invited.
Rites of Passage
I support people living into the stage of life that they are in and help them fully cross into that stage through meaningful experiences and education.
Group Dynamics
I facilitate and consult to groups creating learning opportunities about meaning that lies below the surface. This work improves the workplace environment and their functioning as well as giving us all better tools to live fulfilling and productive lives. I study, train in, and facilitate the Group Relations framework for group work. I am a graduate of the AKRI LDRS program, a Co-Creator with GRI, and member of AKRI, CSGSS, and Grex along with serving as the Interim Treasurer to Grex.
Rustic Modern Construction
From felling trees and milling them into lumber to system design and construction I build modest highly energy efficient homes from scratch.
I fell trees in winter, milled them into lumber in summer/fall, the wood is drying over winter, and build a small home/tiny house the following year. Will it be yours?
