I was raised in a traditional American christian household, but always felt uneasy with the ideas and practices in the church. I've always been a curious person though and continued to search for ways of defining reality outside of dogmatic structure. As I grew and learned more, I went through phases of Atheism and agnostic belief, but always felt that there was something more.
After a divorce in 2012, I was finally forced to look inward at myself and was led down a path of self discovery. I was called into psychedelics, and headed down to Gaia Sagrada in Ecuador for my first authentic medicine ceremonies in 2014. This eventually led me to UMS and the continuation of diving deep into the nature of reality and myself. I am now on the path to being a light to the parts of myself and "others" still hiding in the darkness. As I heal myself and become whole in love and unity, so does the rest of the world. In gratitude, namaste.
