I'm a mom, writer, hiking guide, artist, research investigator, and adventurer. I guide hiking tours of hidden history on Southern California trails as well as expeditions into the California desert to explore Native American shamanic rock art. The art I create is inspired by the Native American Huichol of the Mexican Sierra Madre mountains. I am a native Californian with "indian" blood. I feel the land and its people in me. I have a passion for history, especially history of the American West, and it brings me tremendous joy to share that passion with others as a tour guide and through my art. My lifelong pursuit is the interpretation of symbolism left on the rocks by early people of the ancient Southwest. It tells a fascinating story about diffusionism of the human race and the ideas people carried around the world for tens of thousands of years.
