(they / them) ethereal being making heartfelt and soulful music in relation to and with nature. Music is one of the universal languages of the world that all humans feel in our souls. I hope my music and love of other musicians art helps to build community that is connected to fighting for a better world through compassion and kindness.

I create in relation and reverence to the lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. Nature soundscapes and inspiration through time connected in nature is a deep inspiration for all artwork I create.

Beyond music I am a photographer, writer, performance artist, and community builder (among many other things). Aquarius Sun, Taurus Moon, Libra Rising. I am descendent from Celtic and Scandinavian ancestors, born on the territories of the Wendat, Haudenosaunee, and Anishinaabe peoples. Raised on Stó:lō land of the Qʼʷa:n̓ƛʼən̓ (Kwantlen) peoples. I deeply believe in decolonizing, returning to Indigenous wisdom and practice, as well as Land Back.

I am a Autistic/ADHD, Non-binary, Queer, and Disabled human being living with chronic pain, autoimmune disorders, and cPTSD. I carry these lived experiences with me in everything that I create and in the way I show up in the world. Themes around anti-oppression feature in my art regularly. But so too does joy. Holding the complexities of this human experience, often of holding grief and joy at the same time.

I aspire to create things that connect to people’s souls and are reminders that in the end we are all interconnected so we should treat one another with kindness and build an equitable world.
