About

I AM Mata.

I walk the path of healing, remembrance, and spiritual embodiment.
My journey has taken me through medicine, mysticism, motherhood, and movement—from the clinical world of emergency nursing to the sacred stillness of ceremonial space.

My roots are Haitian, and I carry with me the mysticism and spiritual depth of my ancestors—threads of Afro-Caribbean wisdom that live in my bones and breath. That reverence for Spirit led me to study deeply with the Shipibo people of the Peruvian Amazon, where I apprenticed in the medicine ways and ceremonial practices rooted in the sacred use of Sacred Plants.

For years, I co-led transformative retreats through OMÉ Retreats, holding space for deep inner work, healing, and spiritual integration. While I’ve been called a “shaman,” I walk beyond titles. I listen, I witness, I guide, and I create the space where your own wisdom can rise.

I am the founder of H101: A Heart to Heart Foundation, which was created to support children in Haiti, and the visionary behind I Am VéVé, a sacred art and design brand that merges ancestral symbolism, celestial beauty, and the frequencies of remembrance.

More than anything, I am a woman who has broken and bloomed, fallen and remembered—again and again.
