Story is representative of fluidity, unbridled creativity and interpresentation. I may not be able to change what is fact or to alter what is process, but I might be able to interpret it, and through interpretation, I shift both fact and process from the realm of absoluteness to that of relativity, from the static to the dynamic. Story, unlike text and number, is Spontaneous, it is the Is-ing of life. It is never finished, never perfect. It knows neither beginning nor end. It is both immanent and transcendent, weaving the threads of spirit and matter into a single fabric of aliveness and chaos, clarity and paradox. Story wields more power than either text or number
People are more inspired and influenced by myth than fact. Story is the ruach aspect of soul manifestation or the emotive attribute of our self. Story is beenah, which connotes insight, understanding, intuition and literally 'building' as in building upon what you know, from materials you already have. Story is the power of the feminine, the power that takes in the raw and refines it, builds it, unfolds it to fruition. Story flourishes before, during and after life. Where text is the fact of life and number is the process of life, story is the mystery of life - ever unfolding, ever uncertain, ever surprising, ever challenging, ever alive, and ever eternal. Story in other words doesn't go by the book.

Negotiating the spaces between experiential design and narrative medicine, I design sensory informed spaces, alongside pre / post care guides as resources we can use to better show up to our selves and others. Simone Wei said that “attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity”, and it is my intention to provide materials, prompts, exercises, intentions, allies and discourse as a path to noticing, witnessing and engaging with our authenticity as a way to reach homeostasis.
As someone who is sensitive to all the details of my many worlds, stories are expressions pieced together like inquisitive forensic pilgrimages, ready for a reader to sigh into.
I am a bard living in the nuance of annunciation, cadence, tone, pitch and decibel - and it would be a privilege to lend my translucent meaning and medium making into your service or supply.
Well versed in the functional aesthetics of decor + design with experience as an online editor as well as being a student of many crafts, I angle content in a poetic visual + prose sequencing that fits into the integrity of your online identity and communications.
