Marlisa is Art Director and Owner of mcdStudios
, a visual communications studio. For over seven
years, it has produced high-impact conceptual design solutions for a
diverse clientele including Fortune 500 companies, universities, and medical, publishing,
and nonprofit organizations.The
Studios' areas of strength and experience are identity development, Web site
creation, multimedia, book, and collateral and advertising materials. In addition, a strong working client relationship
and comprehensive project management are cornerstones of each project. A well-designed message is essential to business. The scope of our work goes beyond the
visual. In fact, aesthetics is only a small portion of each project. The major
effort is focused on clarifying the client’s needs, researching its
competitors, and defining a strategic solution.Design without careful thought or explicit purpose will neither succeed
nor resonate with the target audience. First, we must truly understand the
audience. We do not design for our client; we design for the client’s
audience. Only then will the idea be communicated through compelling visual
language.Website: www.mcdstudios.com

Cathy
Pedevillano is a visionary, a healer, a teacher, a guide, a seeker, a lover of
animals and nature and all that is good and beautiful on this sacred Earth.
Cathy awakened to the shamanic path in her early 30’s after years of intense
personal and spiritual growth. The teachings and practices of shamanism
accelerated her own healing journey and resonated with her at a deep soul level.
Cathy was told by an Equadorian shaman that she was “born a shaman” meaning
she came into this life with many of her gifts intact, and had been a shaman in
other lives. Her healing abilities recognized by her teachers, clairvoyance have
been recognized by Altan Erdeni, a Siberian Shaman and Gomo Martinez, a Navajo
Medicine Man and Anna Maria Pererz, a Mayan-Aztec healer. Through her healing
work and trainings, she continues to assist more and more people in waking up to
the truth of who they are and reclaiming their power. Website at: www.heartofshamanism.com

experience in re-evaluation counseling and Vipassana meditation, and has

environmental track record in Russia SEN began coordinating indigenous exchanges
between Native Siberians and Native Americans in 2001. Elders, shamans, and
leaders from both sides are encouraged to share their traditions with one
another and, in the process, find mutual solidarity and support, not only among
themselves but from the larger community of Natives and Non-Natives they come
into contact with. We remain the only group with this particular, ongoing (and
hopefully expanding) project focus. Website: www.sacredearthnetwork.orgFor
