ABOUT ME

I am first and foremost an artist. I’ve been drawing since I can remember. My first job was as a caricature artist at Opryland USA in Nashville, TN. where I grew up. I was also a musician, and for a brief stint, I was pursuing a career in Music Education. That wasn’t my path, but I am deeply attuned to the harmonics of places, people, patterns and systems. And it is harmonic restoration that I seek to bring to the land, and while doing so, restore it to me. So it’s not just aesthetics that drive me, but restoring the energetic geometries through my work with sacred spaces and people. My career began in graphic design in the 1990s. I worked my way up the corporate ladder, self taught, with a proclivity for technology. I am a renaissance soloprenuer; skilled in creative writing / scriptwriting, graphic & web design, marketing and filmmaking… serving clients in the financial industry. In addition, I am a spiritual seeker with several coaching certifications, and am well versed in self-knowing systems like The Gene Keys and The Sophia Code.

In 2019 I began to slow down from a fast paced schedule, and since then, in successive stages, I’ve deepened my commitment to finding the right balance between work, life, health and creation. I find myself reaching constantly beyond the restraints of dying systems for new solutions for living, and now for financing my dreams. Bringing my whole self into harmony is my top focus. And I believe from this comes my most radiant self… which feeds my capacity to serve others from overflow, not from fear, lack or performance. I believe this approach can be part of a new blueprint for living, that then energetically encodes the collective field. And just as, when the 4 minute mile was broken, the barrier of perception was gone, and a new reality rippled out to now achieve what was once thought impossible. And so it is with humanity seeking now to return to harmony with nature.

A BUSINESS PLAN FOCUSED ON STEWARDSHIP

The land I seek isn’t just about me or my creative expression, but I seek to beautify it in ways that are sustainable, intelligent, considerate, and serving the land and the animals of that land by giving back to them. I won’t be just planting food for myself or to sell, but want to establish a perennial food forest that regenerates itself year after year… with established crops for local animals and then some for me to harvest personally. I want to plant native flowers, fruit trees and brush that supports the landscape and most of all pollinators. I want to create a sanctuary for birds, with future potential for bee keeping. I want to upgrade the house, the buildings and areas of the property to create a truly magical space for hosting small retreats that connect people back to the land. Function, beauty and purpose; meeting… with plans for a greenhouse, a pond, art studio space, and AUDs for guests. Most of all – and this should go without saying… my approach will be to use natural methods and organic products that are free from the poisons of the industrial chemical complex so readily pushed in agricultural development.

My vision is not capitalistic, but regenerative… although I do intend to grow one or two specialty crops, like saffron, as well as hosting retreats that can help generate funds for upkeep. My current freelance business is well established, and my schedule, although minimum, provides me with a stable consistent monthly income, working with a client I have served since the early 2000s. I have minimal debt (car) with perfect payment history. My student loans fell behind and that has affected my credit rating on paper. But I am not one to take out unnecessary loans, even to build credit, which I consider to be a more responsible approach. To be frank, I feel our entire financial system is deeply broken… set up to enslave as many as possible, rewarding the few as they extract and horde profits built by common labor. Many people like playing the game and pursuing their own gain… but as an Aquarius, I’m deeply troubled and motivated by the injustices that plague the majority of people. I’m more apt to dream of a new future than to contort myself to a system that doesn’t honor me or the planet. I’m not living my life to fit into the current extractive and limiting financial systems. I’m reaching for something new.

INVESTING IN A DIFFERENT FUTURE

There’s a higher blueprint for business waiting to express a new octave… one driven by people and balance with nature over profit. As long as we continue using money, it will always be necessary to earn it. But concepts like value, return on investment, and growth look very different when people and ecosystems thriving is the highest mark of success. When you have money and wish to use it to fund legacy, the old playbook of expansion, domination, extraction, and profits doesn’t fit. Without the divine feminine principle of giving being a primary principle for business… the world reels and burns in the grip of humanity’s spiritual immaturity. This is where you come in. You are interested in supporting legacy projects through PRI investments, grants, low-interest mission loans, and/or investments that seek impact that goes beyond the financial statement and into the world of stewardship and regeneration – of land and people. Just like finding the right land and house is my starting point… I am seeking to partner with someone whose legacy is as much in the unseen as the seen. Foundations, philanthropists, and/or impact-investment organizations who seek to help launch a small regenerative hobby farm, pollinator habitat, and specialty crops in the hands of a woman-led rural business… I am here. It would be a joy to connect.  

As I actively search for the right property, I am holding two visions in tandem. One would require a modest investment to launch… the other is a higher value property which already has some or many of the components of my vision started or already developed. I am open to both scenarios, and the amount available will determine my direction. I have currently identified a property in Southern Oregon, not far from the coast, that is just past my own personal budget. And, I’ve identified a larger, more developed property in Northern California, close to the coast, that is a bigger investment. In addition, I have many other potentials and contingency properties… but two remain my favorites. I am seeking support with the down payment as well as a low to no interest loan that fits my current budget… or best-case scenario, complete funding. Aside from the purchase, both properties need specific updates and investment funds to achieve the vision for the sanctuary… for which I could potentially seek a different investment source to complete.

On paper, I don’t look like a credit worthy investment. But my history, low debt and consistent payment of my bills tells a different story. I’m not looking for traditional financing or venture capitalist who is investing for a financial reward… because my vision is to attract resources for stewardship, not capital gain. I’m looking to partner with philanthropists and visionaries who have the capital and who want to give it to people and projects they deem highly valuable to fulfilling their legacy. If this sounds like you, please reach out. I’m happy to answer any additional questions and talk further about this venture.
