who is she?
When I was little, I used to stare outside my bedroom window in the middle of the night, praying that one day aliens would come and take me home. I have always felt like an observer, could sense “energies” and predict world events, including 9/11 and the Boxing Day Tsunami in 2004. But I put those gifts away because they made others uncomfortable, and historically, society hasn’t liked bright girls who could see the truth.
In 2012, I had my first big awakening, which I masked with philosophy and anthropology. It was misunderstood and pathologised, except at parties when I’d whip out my tarot cards to give readings to other drunken uni students. The second awakening came in 2019. I dusted off my cards and devoured everything I could about consciousness. That’s when I started showing up online, helping heartbroken girls find themselves again. With my Master’s in education and my psychic insights, I built a 20k+ following and coached over 200 clients through heartbreak towards self-love. Here, I started training with professional psychics to strengthen my abilities and broaden my expertise in the unseen.
However, I felt I needed to gain “real-world” work experience and live life for my own soul growth. So I put the cards away, moved to Auckland, got a big job in tech, and stepped into executive life. I entered rooms I once dreamed of, but the nudges never stopped. I could sense when businesses were slightly out of alignment, who was destined for success, and I could see the future of the industry in ways others couldn’t. But I also knew I wouldn’t fully activate my purpose until I stepped out of the witch’s closet.
Now, with the rise of AI and our systems unravelling, my early visions and predictions are proving true. If you look closely, it’s all there in the vault of my old work. Truths hidden in plain sight, weaved throughout all my work and conversations. But action completes the circuit, and I’m ready to be the magical hand to hold if you’re ready to take the leap towards your purpose.

what’s the why?
It has been instilled in me that it all has to come back to the why. These are basic human truths to which we are all deserving of:
To live a beautiful and abundant life.
To make meaningful impact.
To love and be loved wholeheartedly.
outside of work
Music.
I have an interesting and less than popular taste in music. You will find me singing in the car to any of the following: Corbin, The Shins, Hazel English, The Beaches, Artemis, Toro y moi, and any folk music from the 60’s.
Backyard films.
I started writing screenplays and making films about my Barbies when I was 7 years old. My love of storytelling and movies continued into high school when my friend and I started making backyard horror or coming-of-age films. We would submit to film festivals, and even though we never won, this continued all throughout high school and uni. I still have a scar on my foot when a stunt with a wine bottle went wrong.
Writing.
I write every day. Either adding to my collection of short stories about past lives, a poem inspired by my love of John Keats, or my ongoing dream of something called Diamantis. But if it’s not creative, I’m either writing in my shadow work journal or the latest edition of my substack “The Cosmic Anthropologist”.
Art.
My biggest passion in life. I will never be able to pinpoint my favourite movement or artist, but I love artists who can play with light, colour, and composition, especially in photography. If I had to, my current top 3 favourite artists would be Hilma af Klint, David Hockney, and Uta Barth.
Meg Ryan.
My comfort movies all star Meg Ryan. When Harry Met Sally, You’ve Got Mail, and Sleepless in Seattle. They are part of my identity at this point. There’s also something about a New York love story I can’t pass by.
Classics.
I am a Hellenist - if you ask me anything about Ancient Rome, I will draw a blank. Homer or greek vases? Don’t bother to ask, because you’ll be stuck with me talking your ear off for an hour.
