HOW DO YOU EMBRACE DIVERSITY AND/OR UNCONVENTIONALITY?
As an American, leaving the country is already unconventional. As I found ways to be abroad traveling more and more, I would consistently get random messages from people asking me how i had the nerve, how I made it work, how I dared to leave my old life. When I restarted my remote career in therapy after years of traveling, making art and music...I have been able to inspire my creative clients to do the same and can guide them now from experience and I see those ripples in friends, family and clients.
HOW DO YOU EXPRESS YOURSELF CREATIVELY?
I write and produce music, I pioneered a genre called psychangelic and created an analog audio visual dreamworld with support from Iboga Records and Sofa Beats in a ground-breaking hybrid NFT and standard release including loads of remixes and my original album as an NFT release in a wholly new release model for an emerging artist in the electronic space. I am an attachment therapist in private practice with artists and creatives helping them remap resistance and bring their artistic potential to light whilst processing and transmuting trauma and attachment injury. My therapy work is the most co-creative work I do and is a part of my psychangelic art as well.
