A little about my Tarot educational background
It may be surprising to learn that I have a background in the arts! I graduated from VCU Arts with a Bachelors of Fine Art in illustration and a minor in painting and printmaking.
​
Because of this, the visual language of tarot has always come naturally to me. I always say that reading tarot is like reading a story in a graphic novel, but it is about you and your life!
My more formal training began when I studied at Spiralheart Witch Camp! Yes, it was like Summer Camp but for adults who want to study all things witchy. For two Summers, I went out in nature and took classes about mythology, tarot, the elements, and more!
​
These classes gave me the foundations for understanding the elements of tarot.
​​​​​​​​
One morning at witch camp, I pulled 3 tarot cards for myself and suddenly thought "Oh! It's all clicking. I think I can read tarot now!"
My friend nodded and said "That's how it happens!"
I have also taken Astrology courses with the renowned Chani Nicholas, Jason Miller's course on Hekate, Lindsay Mack's course "Tarot for the Wild Soul," and workshops at conventions like Fairy Con!
​
In-person experience is also invaluable. I have participated in celebrating witchy holidays and Full Moons with various covens in the DC metro area over the past 10 years.
​
​In May 2025, I decided to start studying with the Arthur Findlay College! Known as the "real life Hogwarts," they are one of the best schools for spiritual development in the world!
​
My studies have all been online because they are located in the United Kingdom. But, I am very excited to go study in-person this Summer! I will be taking classes on intuition and mediumship development.
In December 2025, I received a certificate from Harvard X in Omens, Oracles, and Prophecies! It was a really fun course and I hope that the ED X platform adds more courses of spirituality and mythology.
The fun part about tarot is that you are never "done" learning and growing, so I am excited to continue studying for year to come!
