About Me: The Making of Monarch & Moon...

I grew up in the gardens & kitchens of my elders. As far back as I can remember, I always loved flower, plants, animals & being in nature. I ate blackberries in my Grandmother's backyard, made friends with the trees & drew big yellow suns in he left hand corner of my artwork. As I grew up, life begin to happen & I lost sight of the simple things that once made me so happy, Monarch & Moon is an ode to my ancestors, specifically my Grandmother & Great-Grandmother, both named Carrie, and my Grandfather, Arthur. They helped encouraged little me & guided big me back to the path I was meant to travel in this life. I am a Certified Herbalist & Yoga Teacher, Holistic Doula, Visual Artist, Spiritual Practioner & Tree Hugging Wellness Advocate.
