Music - Relaxing and poppy, my music tells stories of empowerment and enlightenment in daily life. How can we keep the light on inside, throughout bouts of anxiety in a changing world? The answer: awakening love, every second of every day. Listen to Travis & Samadhi
Essays - I write about the the relationship between humankind, the non-human world, and spirituality. Check out my Writing
