Back to my regular scheduled programming on !

Been playing with this super fun, new-to-me split by , but left out her super cool twisty entrance for video length (as she always has unique ones). 🥰 I’ve been playing with different angles for this split but I think I like it horizontal.

More drone and fire scorpion headdress from the Hekate’s Torch show. 🥰

Funny behind the scenes fact- I had to bring a shovel and level a patch of dirt so the chair wouldn’t tip and wobble in this field. Dancing in a rural pasture definitely was a challenge!

This year I was given an amazing opportunity to not only wear my beautiful new headdress (who I inherited from 🫶🏼), but to play among drones. We wanted something different that could be struck from stage quickly, so my fire idea came to life.

Many thanks to for bringing Hekate’s Torch to life by you and the drone team. And to for this killer photo. 🔥

Hekate’s Torch April 17th and 18th at Pioneer Farms.

Pray to Hekate that this show will be dry. 🙏🏻 Ticket link in my bio. This show was a massive undertaking and once you see it, it will all make so much sense. 🔥

for a beautiful Hill Country wedding. 💕

I have so many hilarious and sweet memories with .neko! From Concourse hangs, to eating cookies dressed like Mrs. Claus, and then being able to teach her lyra. When she asked me to perform for her wedding, I felt extra special! 🥰
