AREAS OF SPECIALTY
As a music minister and sound healer, I offer seminarians a wide array of tools to aid them in tuning their instruments to best receive and spread the vibration of love.
As a trained spiritual mentor I offer a safe space and deep listening, to assist in discerning and clearing blockages to fulfilling your commitment to serving the highest good.
As one who has enjoyed a long life journey on a spiritual path that has wound through many spiritual traditions, I offer my knowledge and experience in interfaith practices. I will help you create and follow the path of your choosing through the personalized part of the seminary curriculum.

MY PERSONAL STATEMENT
My spiritual journey has taken me from the Methodist Church of my early years, to fasting and praying with Thich Nhat Hanh, to dancing with Sufis, to Native American  healing circles,  to Wiccan ceremonies, to chanting mantras with Hindus. I have seen Jesus in meditations at ashrams and chanted mantras in Christian churches. I have found mystical union with the One in all parts of the path. As a recording vocalist, I have chanted the many names of God/dess and felt the presence of the named One chanted. As your guide, I will help you find your own path to that ecstatic unity.

You came into the world with a special, unique gift that is needed to help heal a troubled time. It is yours, you deserve it, it is needed. If it is hidden or blocked, I will help you dig it out and polish it so that all may benefit from it's sparkling light.  
​
We welcome you to the interfaith ministry. Your contributions are a blessing.
