First and foremost, I am an artist -- I write fiction, do fine art photography and paint. Many of my photographs and pieces of artwork are included on this web site. Artists access deeper truths in their work. I use my artistic ability to help clients access their truths .
I also have vast experience in the “real” world. Prior to becoming an artist, I worked for 20 years as an international journalist – as an editor and reporter with newspapers and magazines in Tokyo and London and as a travel writer for a year in Asia. I wrote stories on becak drivers in Indonesia, on island paradises in the Philippines, on kids in juvenile detention in Seattle. I loved this world, but also knew at the age of 29 that I needed to leave it to follow my calling to be an artist. I base my readings on the path I underwent in the transition from full-time journalist to artist.
