About Mazarine Treyz (she/her)
Mazarine is an American, multi-hyphenate polycreative - artist, trainer, writer, speaker, human design reader, consultant and facilitator of spaces for radical learning. She is the creator of many projects and art pieces.
In human design, she’s what’s known as a manifesting generator (shoutout to my 3/5 MG’s!). Manifesting generators are those individuals who have multiple interests, careers, talents, skills, and embrace the fluidity of it all. She’s meant to be “both/and” not “either/or” in all aspects and areas of her life.
Some different facets: Trainer, Resource mobilizer, Conference director, Human design reader, Speaker, Writer, Poet, Dancer, Singer, Meditator, Artist, Community builder and so much more that she hasn't even explored yet.
Some identities + realities that inform her lived experience:
French/German background, queer, mid-40s, curvy, citizen of the US, overseas living in multiple continents, raised Unitarian, unlearner, questioner of systems, socialist.
