I feel blessed to grow up where I did, just steps from the forest, river, mountains, and wild animals. Living somewhere like that teaches you things without ever saying a word. You start to notice how your body responds—to light, to scent, to stillness, to instinct. You learn to pay attention. The Snoqualmie Valley will always be home for me it is a very sacred and holds a special space in my heart.

Working with plants, crystals, and flame never felt like something I learned. It felt familiar, like something I was remembering. As I got older, I realized I’ve always been someone who notices details deeply. I feel things in my environment quickly—what’s calming, what’s overwhelming, what feels right, what feels off. That hyper sensitivity made me more intentional about what I surround myself with. What touches my skin. What fills my space. What I return to every day.

Devine Flame grew from that awareness. It didn’t start as a business idea—it started as a personal practice. A way of turning attention into intention. Of creating things that embody certain dreams and desires to remind myself each day I create my own reality.

Everything I make is meant to be lived with. Lighting a candle in the evening. Warming body butter between your hands. Taking a breath. Small rituals might seem simple, but they can shift how a space feels—and how we feel in it. What we live with shapes our environment. What we repeat shapes us. I still make everything slowly and by hand, choosing clean, non-toxic ingredients and thoughtful materials, and nothing is added without purpose. Nothing rushed. Nothing unnecessary. I’m personally involved in every part of the process because I want what you receive to feel intentional, not mass made. Something real. Something you actually feel good about having in your space.
