HOW TAROT ACADEMY CAME ABOUT

I know what it feels like to not know where to start.

That Oracle Guy is my tarot reading practice, where I’ve read tarot for over 1000 people all around the world. Throughout the years, I’ve met so many people who are drawn to tarot but have no idea where to begin. They find resources online, pick up books, watch videos, and end up with seventy eight concepts and no real understanding of how to put it all together.

What people are missing isn’t more information, it’s a connection to the cards. Most resources don’t show us how to relate each card to a moment that we’ve already lived and experienced. Something we can recall in our emotional body, our physical memory.

Tarot Academy is my answer to that.

Every lesson connects a card to something you’ve already been through: a heartbreak, a difficult decision, a moment of unexpected clarity. That’s how meanings and the wisdom of the cards really settle in us: through the lens of our lived experiences.

PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

I wasn’t always a tarot card reader.

Before Tarot Academy, I spent twelve years as a digital art director and e-commerce brand consultant in New York City, building brands for global fashion companies. That experience is exactly why Tarot Academy goes further than most courses are willing to: building your brand, designing your website, and becoming visible to your future clients. It’s what I did professionally for over a decade before I ever taught it to anyone.

  • 12+ years of experience as a digital art director and e-commerce brand consultant

  • 10+ years of practice and professional tarot reading experience

  • 2 years of evolutionary tarot study in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

  • BFA in Photography & Design · New York University

In an effort to be the best I can be, I continue my education with certificates in psychology and psychological first-aid. Because an evolutionary tarot reading is a healing space that deserves to be recognized and handled with care.
