Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by! I write about Southern conjure and Native American spirituality; more specifically, I write about how Native American herbalism and spirituality manifests in Spiritualism and modern day hoodoo. I work with roots, conjure with words, express with art, and create magic.
Visitor's notice
I am an old style conjure woman who is also an academic and a ritual artist, living up to the description of "Disruptive Innovator" - a term coined by my alama mater Walden University. Walden encourages their students to be movers and shakers - to be agents of change - to create a ripple of positive energy from our little corner of the world and watch it spread far and wide. Both my writings and my art tend to provoke a dichotomy of emotions in people who witness them - folks seem to either love me or hate me. It's all good - lovers, haters, curious observers, and seekers - all are welcome to witness my work. I am led by spirit to create art and to describe and record my life experiences as a woman growing up in the Hoodoo capitol of the World, New Orleans, Louisiana. That said, my life experiences are by no means limited to New Orleans as I have been all over the world and currently call Arizona my home.
