About

I am a graduate of Pacifica Graduate Institute’s Mythological Studies with Emphasis in Depth Psychology Program and have presented papers on Star Trek related topics at various conferences, including the Science Fictions, Popular Cultures, Academic Conference of HawaiiCon, the Association for the Study of Women and Mythology, Mythgard Institute, the American Academy of Religion, Western Regional Conference and Popular Culture Association/American Culture Association, where I currently serve as chair of the Psychology and Popular Culture area.

I have also written, performed, and produced two one-woman shows: Dancing to the Edge of a Cliff: A Mythical Journey Toward Wholeness and Soul Trek: My Sci-Fi Journey Toward Wholeness, and produced and hosted the public access television series Myth Is All Around Us. Wanting to continue my explorations of Star Trek from a depth and archetypal psychology perspective, I am currently a student at Pacifica Graduate Institute’s Depth Psychology with Specialization in Jungian and Archetypal Studies Program.

These daily musings are an outgrowth of my solo show, Soul Trek: My Sci-Fi Journey Toward Wholeness, and my interest in using stories from Star Trek to explore depth and archetypal psychological themes. As such, they are random, and represent what became conscious as I re-viewed each episode.
