My journey with tea began when I was about 20 years old, but I must have been moving towards it all along. My first memories are of extracting essences from the wildflowers in my backyard when I was a child, foraging healing plants with my Finnish grandmother and studying heirloom seed catalogs. I always knew that I was going to work with plants when I grew up.

At University and throughout my twenties, I worked in sustainable agriculture in California, Montana, Tennessee and Connecticut. During a spell working as a cook at a beautiful little Tibetan teahouse in Montana, tea found me.

Something inside of me turned on and I though I didn’t know where she would lead me, I had no choice but to follow. My love of travel, agriculture, sustainability and wellness, came together in tea and it made me come alive!

Since then, I have worked as a tea buyer, taster and formulator for businesses and brands across the globe. I have seen traditional cultures around the world and how they share tea to cultivate peace, wisdom and connection; how sacred movement and meditation enable us to drop into awareness of the magic of life.

This is what I want to share with you… a pathway into the magic of life through the art and ritual of tea.

Will you come with me?
