Kira Kull (they/them) has a singular capacity for uncovering transformative knowledge from spiritual, psychological, and Queer lineages, expertly weaving together contemporary and historical perspectives that nourish the unique heartbeat of each project. As a Myth Specialist, Kira offers both esoteric and exoteric interpretations of the art and stories that shape cultural beliefs and practices. As an artist and educator, they seek to cultivate enriching experiences that facilitate a nuanced articulation of the wild ride that is being alive.

Coming from an integrative background of classical and experimental theater, interfaith mysticism, and restorative justice work, it is Kira’s greatest delight to explore the themes and modalities of creative expression that shine light on pathways toward personal and collective healing. They hold a BFA in Theatre from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and are currently a Ph.D. candidate at Pacifica Graduate Institute where they have already earned a M.A. in Mythological Studies with Specialization in Depth Psychology. An intrepid seeker of the mysteries, Kira is drawn to themes of multiplicity, liberation, and resurrection with research focused in Intersex Myths and Theory, Decolonial Theory, Archetypal Psychology, and Pop-Cultural Studies. They currently serve as Senior Co-Editor of the Mythological Studies Journal. ↓

Originally from the Bay Area, Kira is now based in Los Angeles after a decade in New York City. Recreationally, they are also a film photographer, singer (proud former alto and board member of esteemed choir Cantori New York) and active participant in the Sufi Ruhaniat International and Dances of Universal Peace communities. Kira is also an instructor with Stud Country, aka the “Queer church of line dance.”

Having worked as a director, curator, actor, writer, producer, and teacher, Kira understands what it means to engage diverse audiences and clients in varied environments such as providing acting and playwriting classes to people incarcerated on Rikers Island, presenting both academic and line dance workshops at the LA LGBT Center, leading retreat workshops for personal development, and speaking at academic conferences. As a storyteller who highly values authenticity, respect for all life, and the compassionate pursuit of truth, work that centers LGBTQIA+ people and uplifts all forms of marginalized experience is a priority to them.

Kira is excited to learn about your projects and discover new avenues of collaboration and creation !
