What is your style as a Tarot reader?
In my readings I seek to empower and support. Nothing I say should ever replace your own personal judgment. I believe in human free will, choice, and personal power, and I don’t believe in a fixed future, which means that tarot can show you the likely outcome of your current trajectory but cannot give an immutable description of future events. I read tarot prescriptively, not purely predictively, meaning that my readings are intended as guidance and advice to help you achieve the outcome that will be best for you. In other words, if you ask me a question like "will I get a new job this year?" expect me to re-frame the question as "what should I do in order to ensure I get a new job this year?"
Although my tarot practice is always focused on providing support and empowerment, that doesn’t mean that every message will be positive. The cards can sometimes challenge you, call you out, or tell you things you don’t want to hear. But please be assured that I always do my best to deliver messages gently, empathetically, and in a spirit of helping.

What Tools do you use in your readings?
I have a large collection of tarot decks and will generally choose one that I feel will provide the right energy for your question or situation. Different people resonate with different symbols and imagery so if you’d like to specifically request that I consider or avoid certain decks, don’t hesitate to let me know! (And if you’re curious about what I have in my collection or are generally interested in tarot deck talk, check out my YouTube channel!)
While the basic content of any reading I perform will always use tarot cards, I do sometimes feel called to use extra tools such as oracle cards or crystals to enhance or clarify the messages of a reading. Any additional tools I decide to include will always be free of charge and I’ll always add extra time to the reading to explain exactly what I’m using.
How will I receive my reading?
Readings purchased online will be performed as videos. When the reading is complete I will email you a direct link to the video which will be posted to YouTube as an unlisted video. When a video is unlisted, ONLY THE PERSON WITH THE DIRECT LINK CAN VIEW THE VIDEO. Your video is completely private and your direct link will never be given to anyone else. I’ll leave this video posted and available to you unless and until you contact me and ask me to take it down. If you wish to use any software to download your YouTube video reading and keep a copy of the recording offline you’re welcome to do so.
If you’re in the greater Minneapolis/St. Paul area and are interested in an in-person reading or booking me for a party or event, feel free to contact me and we can arrange it!
Who can you read for?
Empathy and inclusion are paramount values to me in my tarot practice. To make this explicit: I treat all clients equally regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, national origin, citizenship status, etc, and my approach always seeks to be sex-positive, body-positive, nonjudgmental, and welcoming to all. Please feel free to make me aware of your correct pronouns.
While I generally provide readings in a video format, if you have a disability that requires your reading to be presented in a format other than video, please let me know and I will do my utmost to accommodate you.
Please note that I cannot read for minors under the age of 18 and that by purchasing an online reading from me you certify that you are 18 or above.
Will the information I share with you be kept confidential?
Tarot can often address highly private and sensitive subjects. All information provided to me by clients is kept in the utmost confidentiality. I take this obligation extremely seriously and will never share your information with anyone.
Are you a psychic or a medium?
I’m not a psychic or a medium. I don’t have visions, extra-sensory abilities, or clairvoyant abilities, and I don’t speak to spirits. This means I’m not able to help you pick lottery numbers, find lost people or objects, or communicate directly with the deceased. However, if you have experienced the death of someone close to you, I would be honored to provide a reading to assist you in navigating and healing during the grieving process.
Can I ask a question about my health, my pregnancy, or my legal situation?
Tarot should never replace the advice of a qualified medical, legal, or mental health professional. I cannot do readings giving health diagnoses/outcomes, pregnancy outcomes, or legal advice. However, I will be happy to do a reading providing help and support for navigating and coping with health or legal issues.
Can I ask a yes/no question?
I don’t like giving readings about yes/no questions because I find them limiting and disempowering, and there’s always more to explore about a situation beyond a simple yes/no. If you ask me a yes/no question, expect to receive information about the energy surrounding the situation and advice on how to achieve the best outcome beyond just a simple yes/no answer.
I don't like my reading, can I get a refund?
Sorry, but no. Tarot does not always deliver the messages you want to hear. The rare circumstance under which I will grant a refund is if I can’t perform the reading for you in the time period stated in the listing due to illness or emergency. Should this occur, I will contact you prior to the expiration of the time period stated in the listing and offer a refund. If you would prefer to wait for the reading, I will let you know the time period in which it can be completed.
