She is the author of The Sacred Art of Chant: Preparing to Practice, (SkylightPaths/Turner Publications), is a recording artist, composer, retreat facilitator, and song leader for the NYS Poor People’s Campaign. Her workshops use sound to revitalize prayer and build openhearted, engaged, and playful communities. She loves Michelle, collaboration, diving deep, and a good laugh.
