- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to ask a few questions to get a better idea of what it is they are looking for, provide additional options and services for them to choose from, and work together with them every step of the way to create the perfect ceremony, ritual, blessing, or rite that is unique for them. I never finalize anything without the client's seal of approval to ensure every moment is precisely what they envisioned (or as close to it as is humanly possible to achieve.)
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In 2008 I was ordained legally to perform marriages and rites within 48 US states. I began studying BTW in 1999 and ended in 2008. In 2009 I began studies in modern and tribal Shamanism (Andean Shamanism, Native American Medicine, and Japanese Animism.) In 2010, I received a Masters Degree in Theology specializing in the study of Earth-based religions. I have 9+ years of experience within the North Georgia Pagan Community as a community leader, special event coordinator, vendor coordinator, all providing safe, family-friendly events for the community; in addition to nearly 2 years of Pagan Prison Ministry experience, and four years experience educating and teaching outdoor survival and leadership skills to at-risk, underprivileged youths aged 9-18 for the Boys and Girls Clubs, Kiwanis Clubs, and the Outward Bound School. I've also done 7+ years of Interfaith community outreach programs up to and including Prison Ministry and Last Rites.
