Core Values

The heart of everything I stand for.

 

Compassion

Everyone deserves to be understood without judgment.
I ensure others feel deeply supported by advocating on their behalf and delivering solutions that turn friction into delight.

Curiosity

Creative transformation requires the ability to venture beyond normative ideas. I ask investigative research questions using an exploratory sense of possibility to yield innovative solutions.

Collaboration

When we come together to celebrate what makes us unique, we empower our strengths and dismantle divisions that obstruct the progress towards collective liberation.

 

What I’m Like

  • Libra Rising ☁️
    There is something so special about bringing people together in harmony. I’ll jump at every chance possible to host a gathering. This is partly because I like to be in control, but mostly because I like to ensure everyone is living their best lives. In rom-coms the unlikely unions are my favorite — always have been a sucker for the underdogs.

    Taurus Sun ☀️
    Strangers usually tell me, “it feels like we’ve known each other forever.” I attribute this quality to the down-to-earth disposition gifted to me at birth. At the core of everything, I long to create a life worth showing up for — not just for myself but for everyone. Trying to save the world is exhausting but luckily for me, my blood is made of Yerba Mate.

    Aquarius Moon 🌙
    Yes, I am weird, okay!? Let's get this out of the way now. And yes -- it's the: there's a herb for that, let’s trade tarot readings, and I’ll have to ask my ancestors, type of weird. And no -- I am not above asking for your birth date and time.

    My love language is dry sarcasm and a passionate debate. In my past-time, you can find me reading about human behavior and singing Slavic folk music.

    Please don't let my non-conformist, intense let's save the world energy scare you off! I understand boundaries and enjoy a lively game of tetherball..do they even make those anymore?

    I get my astrological information from Chani

  • Projector with a Triple Split Definition. Waiting for the invitation is my strategy for success.

    Not familiar with Human Design? No worries! In short, human design is a personality system comprised of ancient and modern sciences. It can be utilized as a valuable tool for human understanding just like other personality typing systems. Pretty cool, right?

    It is philosophized, that as a projector, I was put on earth to guide other humans. Towards what? Well, that depends on the person and situation. It’s not uncommon for people to open up easily and tell me their deepest darkest secrets, fears, and dreams.

    Additionally, projectors are masters of systems.. checks out with my profession, doesn't it? The caveat is that I can't just run around willy nilly offering advice and asking people to hang out with me. My gift only works when others ask me to share it with them.

    I learned about Human Design from the Jovian Archive.

  • INFJ-T, considered to be a “Turbulent Advocate” often playing the role of a diplomat whose strategy is constant improvement.

    I’m an extroverted introvert that is passionate about a lot of things, namely human rights and creating a world with evenly distributed power.

    I don’t enjoy small talk but want everyone to be my best friend, even though I know it’s not realistic.

    I like to resolve problems and create states of peace that bring harmony to everyone. I am open-minded, intuitive with a freak level of empathy. I seek collaboration over competition because outside of natural resources, I believe abundance is infinite with enough for everyone to thrive.

    I learn lessons from my personal mistakes and develop rapidly so I don't repeat them. I can get overstimulated in public settings which drains my energy but have found this works in my favor for remote working.

  • Type 1 - The Perfectionist

    For some reason, I feel like I need to apologize for this one..ha! Well, it's no secret that I feel most at ease when things work like a well-oiled machine. This probably has a lot to do with why I like to create systems of structure. I thrive under pressure and manage chaos with a high level of, don't freak out, it will all be okay because I have a plan!

    Although I am highly empathic, I am able to disconnect from negativity and instead focus on what life could be like when it is perfectly balanced. This ideal is what motivates and keeps me pushing towards a brighter tomorrow.
