Biographical information

BBA, BDiv, NCBTMB, Certified Reiki Master/Teacher. Born March 19, 1953 at FE Warren AFB, Cheyenne WY. Actively pursuing as a profession a life-long calling in the ministry of healing by the laying on of hands.

Design rationale

The Gules of the shield represents the blood of Christ which paid for the Or (gold) of salvation.

The hand charged with a human eye is a modern interpretation of the Hand of Miriam, a corollary to the Hamsa. The Hand of Miriam inspires us to extend our eyesight through the sense of touch and refers, therefore, to my healing ministry.

The winged and bipedal Japanese Fire Dragon in chief is an emblem of the Raku-Kei school of Reiki, a system of laying on of hands that facilitates spiritual healing, and to which practice my life is dedicated.

The motto, in Welsh, translates: "Nobility is in the Heart", reflecting my belief that character rather than birth is the true mark of nobility.
