I describe myself as a restless dreamer, someone attuned to possibility, imagination, and the deeper questions that shape a life. That restlessness is not a flaw I am trying to manage. It is the source of my creativity, discernment, and care. What guides my work is a simple and practiced commitment to creating a gentle landing.

A gentle landing is both what I offer and what I am learning to live. It names spaces where people can arrive without bracing, where the body can exhale, and where clarity emerges through presence rather than pressure. I bring this contemplative philosophy into every collaboration, gathering, and project, creating environments that support reflection, honesty, and meaningful transformation.

I support individuals and communities through spiritual direction, teaching, facilitation, creative expressions and scholarship. In one on one spiritual direction, I offer grounded accompaniment for those navigating transition, faith shifts, burnout, grief, or vocational discernment. My approach integrates contemplative practice, somatic awareness, and poetic listening, helping people attend to what is already present in their lives.

As a teacher and facilitator, I design learning spaces that are spacious, intellectually rigorous, and accessible. I am practiced in translating complex theological and cultural ideas into language people can live with. I draw from womanist theology, spiritual formation, digital life, and embodied practice to inform my work in classrooms, retreats, workshops, or community gatherings. I help groups slow down, think together, and engage questions of faith, justice and identity with reflective vocational depth and care.

Poetry and creative expressions are central to my praxis. Through performance poetry, reflective writing, and guided creative practice, I help people reconnect with their inner lives and articulate along the edge of language. These practices are especially powerful in settings seeking healing, reimagining, or renewal.

As a scholar, I bring flexibility and curiosity to new challenges in my approach to interdisciplinary work, moving across theology, poetics, spiritual formation, digital life, and cultural critique. My scholarship is shaped by womanist thought and grounded in my everyday experiences. Bringing poetic focus into written reflection, my words and ideas support embodied spiritual and creative flourishing. I bring a fresh perspective to questions of vocation, rest, trauma aware formation, and the spiritual lives of Black women. For me, research is a contemplative practice.

I am open to new spiritual directees, creative gigs, collaborative and experimental scholarly projects, public facing work, and teaching opportunities. I love working on collaborative projects, in experimental formats, and dynamic roles that invite creative problem solving and thoughtful design. I work well across contexts and disciplines, and I am especially drawn to opportunities where the approach is valued as much as outcomes.

If you are seeking a collaborator who can hold complexity, create grounded and reflective spaces, and bring beauty through contemplative presence, then let’s work together.
