I am a creatrix.
(YOU are, too, BTW.)
I’ve always been fascinated by how language, woven into stories, makes meaning.
​
Telling stories is how we create our reality, which is the epitome of being human.
My zone of genius is helping you recognize and embody your magic through the power of storytelling using language and Tarot.

My Story;
It's all a part of the spiral journey...
Hit fast-forward, and a few years later, after learning how to recognize and follow the thread of knowing back to my heart (changing majors approximately three times), I graduated magna cum laude from The University of Texas at Arlington with my Bachelor of Arts in English and a minor in Psychology.
Deciding to study English, a degree path that felt right rather than sounded impressive when I said it to people, was one of the first decisions I really made with my heart.
​
However, I wasn’t prepared for the post-graduation realization that quickly hit: My time in college was up, and I had absolutely no clue what I was actually going to “do” with my English degree.
​
I was filled with ideas, passions, and a deep knowing that there was a purpose within me, but bringing my inner world to life felt like a fantasy that didn’t fit in with “the real world.”
Our inner child holds many keys to claiming our present power.
I’ve always been a reader, a writer, and a sensitive, intuitive soul.
When I was little, I’d craft books out of stapled manilla folders and create detailed PowerPoint presentations on the clunky family desktop computer – for fun.
Like so many other kids, I had boundless creativity that flowed out of my heart constantly.
But also, like many other kids, as I went through adolescence (and public school), I stifled a lot of that creativity, along with the ability to discern the voice of my heart. I learned to "fit in," but I felt so disconnected from myself.
Fortunately, when I was eighteen, I sought therapy for depression and anxiety, which changed my life. As I learned that there really was "more," including reasons for the way I felt lost, I slowly but surely began to reconnect with my younger self and rekindle the spark of my creative spirit.
I'd followed my heart’s guidance up to a point, but the way forward was foreign terrain. I didn’t know how to trust my heart to continue navigating me toward where the mountain of my dreams loomed in the distance.
​
I wanted desperately to be a "real writer," but the insidious voice of imposter syndrome kept asking me who the hell I thought I was to even consider making money writing.
​
"There’s just no way," this ego-driven voice tried to convince me. And I began to believe that there was no way. Instead of moving forward toward my dreams, I shoved my heart into the passenger seat and sped away back toward familiar scenery.
There's purpose in the chaos.
Next, cue lots of what I can now most appropriately call "Proof That It Can Happen," which is an important phenomenon for young dreamers to witness and understand. It's basically when you come into contact with other people climbing the mountain of their own dreams and feel inspired, or in-spirit, because of it.
​
My attempt at detour from the daunting idea of Writing Real Things landed me first in luxury retail sales, where I managed an independently owned bridal salon, and then in aesthetics and cosmeceuticals, where I became a licensed aesthetician and assistant to a cosmetic injector/medical spa owner.
​
What these jobs had to do with my degree or purpose, I initially didn't know. But even though I'd relegated my heart to the position of road trip DJ, its innate wisdom never abandoned me. I worked and worked to help others bring their desires into reality, and that's when I began to realize that dreams CAN come to life.
I also learned that everything I'd been doing was intrinsically related to the path of my purpose. While assisting at the med spa, I began writing copy and content: emails, social posts, promotional flyers, website copy, and even a training manual for new injectors.
​
I loved writing copy and was good at it! I didn't know that copywriting was a real, stand-alone job at that point, and yet there I was, freaking doing it.
“What you seek is seeking you.”
- Rumi
When I started learning more about copywriting, including taking courses from acclaimed copywriters like The Copy Posse's Alex Cattoni, and offering copywriting services, I began to understand how the "detour" I had tried to take with my heart as Passenger Princess had actually been a Divinely-led scenic journey right back to the bottom of the original mountain of my dreams.
​
​Only, now I had proof that this mountain could be climbed because I'd witnessed others climbing their own mountains. My heart, which I thought couldn't possibly know anything about the rationality of directing my life, had brought me to the base of the mountain initially, and now again, but equipped with greater wisdom and understanding.
My heart was never not in control, although the heart doesn't think of it as control. It's like my heart emitted the essence of The Empress in the Tarot, fueling me with fertility of ideas and an abundance of proof that our dreams are not leading us into desolation, but rather away from uncertainty and into Love.
Along the way up this beautiful mountain called Being a Real Writer and Human, I've been continually humbled by the Grace of the spiritual journey. I've faced so many of my fears, many of which were only in my mind.
​
​Learning about Divine Feminine wisdom has been one of the most empowering aspects of my journey, and as I've come back home to myself, new doors have continued to open into secret gardens of my soul. I am in love with the process.
​
I started creating Eleventh House to offer copywriting services in 2021. Since then, my vision has expanded as I’ve infused my spirituality into my work, and I'm excited, as of 2024, to now include Tarot and astrology offerings, too.
​
Tarot has been instrumental in guiding me toward a deeper and more holistic understanding of the Divine Feminine and myself. I believe women, especially, can learn how to cultivate increasingly intimate access to their Higher Selves by working with Tarot through a love-based lens.
​
Astrology goes hand-in-hand with this deep archetypal wisdom, giving us access to cosmic, universal energies that deeply influence life on Earth. By engaging with tools like these, we take our power back and kick the egotistical and patriarchal voice of imposter syndrome and doubt aside as we re-member who we truly are.
