Hi! I’m Arly. (she/Her/HERS)

Short for “Arlene”, long for “Ar”, but I’ll likely do a double take if you call me either of those.

The former is reserved for telemarketers, and the latter for family.

You can find me in Portland, ME, with frequent visits to my home state of VT and Lehigh Valley, PA, where my adorable niece resides.

Right now, I’m probably listening to a podcast - anything narrative driven, not so much “people talking in a room” - reading a cook book and then taking a jazz riff approach to the meal - measurements are suggestions, right? - or pouring a cup of tea to sit down with a good book or show and a heavy blanket. (Unless it’s July, in which case, still yes to tea, sadly no to the blanket.)

I hold a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and Mass Communication from Saint Michael’s College. I graduated from Touchstone Healing Arts in Burlington, VT. I have additional training in somatic trauma, non-violent communication, EFT, permaculture, and organic farming.

All of this - and so much more! - informs my work.

Want to connect?

I’d love to hear from you!
