I spent most of my childhood wandering the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, making tree forts with my sister and the neighborhood kids while looking out for rattlesnakes and mountain lion scat.  Grateful for this early deep connection to Earth during those formative years of living in the shadows of the mountains that watched me grow up and the wildness around me. I continue to cultivate this rooted relationship through my daily "witch" walks and seasonal reverence.

​

Before becoming an astrologer 13 years ago, I worked for more than a decade in the public, private, and non-profit sectors in communications and public relations as a team member and boss. I also had brief forays as a TV reporter, speed-dating hostess, spokesmodel, and yoga instructor. During all that time, I was also a huge astrology skeptic. 

 

Now I do my best to bridge the worlds of woo and work with a down-to-earth and trauma-informed lens for my astrology sessions, courses, and trainings. I love working with other holistic healers, magic makers, witches, wild ones, and revolutionaries to uncover more purpose and soul.

 

The business name Wild Witch of the West came to me in the middle of the night more than a decade ago, and I'm still living into the idea and letting it evolve as I go. While the word witch may evoke many things, to me it means:

​

• enchanting myself with Earth and Ether, as a connector between above and below, and a lover of darkness and light

•  a strong political stance against the macro expression of patriarchy and its value of dominance over collaboration

•  honoring and valuing my intuition as a guide to living my life as an art

• valuing Earth and doing my best to align with how to create a relationship of integrity with my favorite planet​

When not staring at my transits (or your chart), I can be found wandering on a hiking trail, watching silly TikTok videos, or "force" cuddling my kitties Freyja and Sophie.
