Advocate / Activist for Drug Reform, Psychedelics and Cannabis 🍄🌵
Change Maker, Amplifier of Love 💗

Psychedelics & Integration saved my life and helped me heal myself from years of buried womb trauma. My intention is to hold space and community for those who want to talk and integrate their psychedelics experiences offering a safe space to be seen and heard. 💕🧜🏼‍♀️✨

🎼🎻🌱My most proudest moments include playing music with my husband in a band and helping change local and statewide laws as an plant medicine and cannabis patient activist. I founded and led a local nonprofit, Safe Access Colorado, helping increase access to medical cannabis in Colorado in 2019 to include Autism and Any Condition for which an Opiate is Prescribed, offering a solution in addressing nontoxic alternatives to pain management helping curb the opioid epidemic.

🍄 I am one of six petitioners (the only POC in the group) behind ballot Initiative 301 that decriminalized psilocybin mushrooms in Denver in the May 2019 election.
🌵In 2020, I was recruited to go help decriminalize entheogenic plants and fungi in DC. In June during my birthday, I flew during the pandemic to help campaign and get enough signatures to get Initiative 81 on the ballot — and Washington DC succeeded! 🙌🏽 🍄

I started my own company Influential X in 2017. A community platform that creates influential experiences and events rooted in education, advocacy and social responsibility.

I’m building my YouTube channel to spread joy, inspire others and share stories about AirBnB’ing our home, adventuring on the road as psychedelic advocates, musicians and lovers. 🚀
