Originally from New York City, I have lived in France and California. With a professional background in dance and body techniques, my teaching and creative work is inspired by nature, storytelling, music and dance.

I worked for many years promoting the arts in public schools in France. Over time I have engaged with hundreds of people from diverse age groups and cultural backgrounds in learning, artistic expression, making connections, sharing ideas and celebrating life.

Currently, I am giving workshops on journaling and creative expression through words, movement and music. My poems have been read on the radio, published online, in print and as the soundtrack for a short film. Talking With Trees, is a collection of poems, published by Plants & Poetry in 2022. My second poetry collection, TEMPO, was published by Kelsay Books in 2024.
