MOON PRINCESS VEE
Your Friendly Neighborhood Magical Girl
Hi! I’m Michael!
As a social scientist and practicing witch, I am elated to hang the proverbial broom and start sharing my research and magic more broadly.
This is
Ricky!
That’s
me!
Thank you for being a part of the journey!
RESEARCH and WITCHCRAFT
touch every part of who I am.
On one side of the house, I’m a trained, PhD-holding sociologist, with a super diverse research background, including User Experience (UX) , medicine and public health, social psychology, education, cultural and media studies, and gender/sexualities (phew!).
On the other side of the house, I am a practicing witch, building my own grimoire for the past decade. I’ve received training as a psychic medium (shout out to the Cozy Coven!)
Who (What?) is
MOON PRINCESS VEE?
Moon Princess Vee is my Magician Self (shout out to Pam Grossman!), the character I embody as I create - be it as a witch, a scientist, or a writer.
Moon Princess Vee, then, is my the magical structure in which my creative labor lives. As part of MPV, I am offering my five areas of expertise - Research, Writing, Witchcraft, Teaching, and Mentorship - to the general public.
