“Guiding you through life’s thresholds with art, ritual and astrology”

Whatever transition you are standing in, I am here to help you honor your unique story.

For the past ten years, I have held sacred handpoke tattoo rituals, meeting people at incredibly diverse chapters of their lives. These years taught me how to listen deeply and hold safe, creative spaces. Today, I weave those exact skills together with my work as a qualified celebrant, astrologer, and artist.

Whether we are crafting a heartfelt wedding, painting a bespoke coffin, celebrating a new life, or marking a personal transformation through a tattoo ceremony, everything I do is bespoke. Together, we will create an immersive, meaningful experience that reflects the absolute depth and uniqueness of your path.

For ten years, I’ve held space for handpoke tattooing as a slow, intentional ritual. Tattooing is an ancient way to translate internal shifts into outward expression. I work in deep collaboration with you, whether we're creating remembrance ink to honor a loss, wedding tattoos to mark a lifelong devotion or a personal transformation. Tattooing is a creative, spiritual and deeply transformative craft.

❋ Ritual Handpoke Tattoo

As a qualified celebrant, I step away from cookie-cutter scripts to honor the true, raw essence of your story. Whether guiding a wedding, a naming ceremony, or a funeral, I hold a calm, compassionate container for you and your loved ones to cross life's major thresholds with poetry, authenticity, and grace.

❋ Qualified Celebrant

Art is the thread that ties all my work together. I bring my creative practice directly to your milestone moments, to create an unique and bespoke experience. I can offer hand-painted a bespoke coffins for a deeply personal farewell, or custom couples' portraits to commemorate your union. I believe art is alchemy and creating beauty at times of transition is magic.

❋ Evolutionary Astrologer

I use evolutionary astrology as a mirror for where you’ve been and where you’re going. It’s a tool for deep self-understanding during major life shifts whether we're diving into your own natal chart during a personal tattoo ceremony, or looking at synastry readings to explore the karma woven into your relationship before you wed, astrology is a tool that I can call on to support you.
