I have been working in partnership with Congressional Cemetery since 2020 to create and establish a contemplative gathering space open to all visitors. The 'Circle of Life' has become a sacred space for communal events and for individuals to stop, rest, reflect, and appreciate the natural environment. I connect easily with people when sharing nature and it has been gratifying to see hundreds of other passersby find this unique space inspiring as well.

My Sacred Place


Congressional Cemetery

The Ward Six 9/11 Memorial Grove at Congressional Cemetery broke ground on Arbor Day as the first of nine memorial groves to be placed around the city in memory of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.

"Thank you for this tool I can share with my 7-year-old daughter, for this labyrinth makes meditation easy for the young to understand."
