I simply be.”

Pretty much all desserts

Creatures that purr

New experiences


NOT SO MUCH LOVE

Murky water

Pastels

Ice Cream

Bugs that bite

Established routines

Dancing Poet

I am a moving body of words. A life-long lover of prose and poetry both written and spoken. Dance is my personal practice of learning how to be with everything that is my life and everything in the world.

Experience Artist

I am a maker of memorable moments. A creator of events and experiences that elicit enjoyment, curiosity, and coalescence. Routines bore me. Rituals inspire me. Imagination and inspiration rules.

Grief Tender

I am one who can be with others in their sorrow, loss, and life transitions. A soulful witness who deeply listens to what is spoken and what is not.

Human Being

For twenty-five years, I've learned from many fellow writers, dancers, and teachers as well as through my own practice that deep healing is available within the body and psyche. Being able to fully feel and uninhibitedly express myself through the written word and through creative movement has had a profound impact on my life.

I'm devoted right now to writing what I’ve longed to say and I’m working towards publishing in 2025. I am also committed to supporting others in their healing process through words and movement as I continue to learn from and move with mine.  

I am inspired by and hungry for honest, wholehearted conversations, shared silence, and vulnerable encounters with others. I’m most curious these days about a human being’s courage, presence, and personal story.

I am not any one thing. I am everything and nothing.
I am Lila.
