The Luna Projects

I wanted to show you all an outline and scope of why I feel The Luna Projects is so important and what my goals for the future entail. As someone that lives with mental illness stemmed from multiple past trauma’s I want to show why it’s so important to have a support system, what to do if you need help (resources, things that have helped me), trying to pull people together to help one another…

Birria is a deeply flavorful Mexican dish traditionally made with beef or goat, slow-cooked in a rich chile-based broth until the meat is tender and juicy. The shredded beef is then tucked into corn tortillas with melted cheese and crisped in a skillet before being served with the savory broth (consomé) for dipping. Here’s my step-by-step recipe for making Birria Tacos at home. 🛒…

On September 11, 2001 I was working at New North Network as a web designer. My work neighbor walked up the stairs and I could see she was distressed and asked her what was wrong, she looked at me and said, “A plane just hit the World Trade Center!” and I was in shock.

When someone we love passes away, our hearts are filled with grief, memories, and an emptiness that cannot be measured. In the middle of this pain, families are faced with the question of what to do with the belongings left behind. Sometimes there is a will that gives clear direction; other times, there is no written plan at all. In either case, how we handle this moment will speak volumes about…

Genealogy has been a passion of mine for many years. It didn’t start with a grand mystery or a historical connection to royalty—it began with a simple curiosity about where I came from. But what started as an interest quickly turned into a deeply personal journey of discovery, research, and connection across time. As I dove deeper, I realized that to do genealogy well, you need more than just…

I wish I could sugarcoat it, package it in a pretty little bow, and say something poetic like “life has a funny way of teaching us hard lessons” — but no. It’s been relentless.
