I’m glad to be here with you.

I’m a writer and documentary filmmaker who likes to draw. I’m learning to explore the human incarnation with a tender heart. I write about life at the margins of society, psychedelics, and the space beyond illusions of comfort, certainty, and right versus wrong.

Unbroken Chain began in 2018 as a podcast, which I produced regularly for three years. Fresh off a paradigm-rocking heartbreak, I travelled solo across the US, throwing myself into experiences with artists, plant people, ceremony keepers, and other mycelial weavers reclaiming culture from institutions and building communities that serve life and regeneration. In that process I learned that everyone I meet is a teacher, and I learned to trust myself.

Now, I make documentary films with my partner Daniel about surviving American institutions and examining our cultural myths. As Henry Rollins says, “I'm not only an American, I am an Americanist. I survive America in spite of what it wants to do to people like me.”

You can watch my films and read previously published work on my website.
