about me
It all started when I moved from sea level to Colorado and perched myself at 7,000 ft elevation in the high desert Southwest, like a bird or a bear or a bighorn sheep.
Except no feathers, no fur. Back then, I was new to the West. My skin was dry. My lips were cracked. My eyes were so dry it was hard to wear contacts. My skin wasn’t oily or prone to breakouts anymore, but with such extreme dry conditions, harsh sun and wind, my symptoms worsened over time. After more than a decade of living in the mountains, my skin was in desperate need of hydration and an anti-aging remedy. I began to seek out wild-botanical inspired solutions around me, sourcing from the best ingredients I could find on the planet.
