Welcome to the Goat Creek Collective

Goat Creek Collective is the creative hub where all of my passions, projects, and wildly different endeavors come together under one roof. What began as a handful of separate ideas has grown into a full-spectrum ecosystem of food, movement, art, performance, and handmade crafts—all rooted in community, expression, and a whole lot of heart.

Here’s what lives within the Collective:

Fancy Fanny Burlesque
My personal burlesque persona—where glitter, grit, character, and cheeky storytelling come alive on stage.

High Country Foods
My food-truck adventure serving bold, comforting, high-country flavor, mountain-side side not roadside.

Let’s Wander More
My jewelry and upcycled line items that are inspired by curiosity, wanderlust, and the magic of handmade and repurposed things.

Tassels for Tata’s
A vaudeville-style burlesque showcase raising funds and awareness for breast cancer support while celebrating performance art and community.

Wayward Motion Company
A movement and mindful wellness pop-up studio offering yoga, (COMING SOON) Pilates, breathwork, somatic-inspired practices, and Tease, Twirl & Strut—a signature blend of burlesque-based movement classes that empower every body to move with confidence and joy.

The Goat Creek Collective is a home for all of it—and for everyone who wants to wander, sip, shimmy, stretch, savor, or simply be part of something creative and connected. I’m grateful you’re here and excited to share this growing, evolving world with you.

OUR STORY

Ang(e)Lena

Dog Mom/ Crafty Bitch

Hi, I’m Angelena—artist, performer, dreamer, doer… and professional plate spinner (figuratively, but I wouldn’t rule it out either). Welcome to my beautifully entangled web of passions, projects, and glitter-fueled chaos. Let’s Wandermore is the home base for it all: the sparkly nerve center where my burlesque alter ego Fancy Fanny shakes her tassels, my handmade pasties and vintage-inspired accessories shimmer, my food truck High Country Foods feeds the masses, and my nonprofit Tassels for Tatas raises money (and eyebrows) with purpose.

In between rhinestoning, road-tripping, and wrangling a pack of dogs, I’m also deepening my healing work through Wayward Motion Co.—my new movement-based practice rooted in yoga, Pilates, breathwork, and the power of presence (and yes, sometimes sequins).

I’ve lived in an RV. Built a tiny house. Now I co-exist in an apartment with more costumes than furniture and the ambition of someday housing all of this magic under one roof: Goat Creek Collective, a brick-and-mortar haven for the weird, the wild, and the wonderfully overextended.

This isn’t a perfectly polished brand. It’s a lived-in, lipstick-smudged, rhinestone-studded lifestyle. I’m not here to do just one thing—and I don’t think you are either. So come wander, twirl, or workshop with me. It’s messy. It’s meaningful. It’s mine

  • Bennett

    Quality Control

    (Sweet Tooth Bandit · Garbage Monster · Big Brother with Big Feelings)

    Bennett came bounding into my life in the spring of 2019 from a Southern Idaho farm litter, and he’s been a lovable chaos agent ever since. Once the pesky little brother, he’s now stepped into the role of big brother with a crooked crown and a soft heart, following the passing of his beloved older brother Willard.

    These days, Bennett’s known for his insatiable sweet tooth (no snack is safe), his impressive garbage excavation skills, and his ability to transform into a puddle of cuddles the moment I sit down. He’s part trash gremlin, part shadow, and 100% mine.

  • Nahla

    Shipping Supervisor

    (Super Fetcher · Hand-Hijacker · Olympic-Level Attention Seeker)

    Nahla officially joined the family in August 2022, though she’d already claimed my heart long before that. When a friend’s kiddo turned out to be allergic to animals, it was a no-brainer—Nahla was already my girl.

    She’s the neediest lovebug you’ll ever meet: a master of fetch, a full-time emotional support tornado, and an expert in using your hand to pet her (whether you’re ready or not). She bounces like a caffeinated rabbit, hogs all the attention, and demands affection with the confidence of someone who knows she’s the main character.

    And honestly? She is. Just ask the rest of the pack—they know they’re living in Nahla’s world.

  • Kitty

    Lead Asshole

    (Galloping Gertie · Betrayer of Her Rescuer)

    Also known as Sassy, Toe-Bea, and occasionally “that little turd,” Kitty crashed into our lives in September 2022 when I heard her crying from a woodpile—left behind by her mom and barely hanging on. She almost didn’t make it (twice), but you’d never guess it now. This scrappy little survivor runs the house with iron whiskers and zero regard for boundaries.

    Despite being rescued by me, she decided my mom was the true chosen one and staked her claim there like the ungrateful little diva she is. She gallops through the house like she pays rent, gives the dogs a run for their biscuits, and maintains her rightful title as Lead Asshole without missing a beat.

    She may be small, but she’s got main character energy, feral confidence, and a permanent spot in the family—even if she did pick a favorite that isn’t me.

  • Birdie

    Customer Service Manager

    (Shower Chicken Extraordinaire · Zero Waste Enforcer)

    Birdie and I have been clucking along together for nearly 14 years, and yes—she’s absolutely my favorite shower chicken and chips & salsa companion. As the last of my original flock, she’s earned her diva status, her free-range privileges, and the right to yell at anyone (including me) if she hasn’t had her daily strut outside the run.

    She still lays an egg now and then, mostly in trade for fresh greens and a handful of grains, but these days her real work is in waste management. As the official lead of High Country Foods’ Zero Waste Initiative, Birdie makes sure no food scrap goes unpecked. She lives for freeze-dried mealworms and will give you the what-for if you’re late with snacks or let her get bored.

    She’s more than just a hen—she’s a legacy, a coworker, a bossy elder, and a feathered little piece of my heart. And honestly? The food truck wouldn’t run without her… mostly because she’d riot.

  • Little Dreamer

    HOME turned Mobile Art Studio

    (1977 Dodge Sportsman · Mobile Art Studio · Rolling Soul Shelter)

    Meet Little Dreamer—my 1977 Dodge Sportsman Dreamer turned tiny home, turned mobile art studio, and sacred creative space. Our story began in early 2019, right when the ground beneath my feet quite literally shifted. My landlord decided to sell the house I had been renting, and just like that, I was packing up my life with no clear place to land.

    I’d always dreamed of building a tiny home, and when I spotted this weathered beauty at an auction mid-move, something clicked. I scooped her up without a second thought. With the help of my bonus dad, we gutted her to the bones and rebuilt her with fresh insides and big intention. By June 2020, I was moved in—and she’s had been home ever since.

    Over the years, Little Dreamer has been more than a roof on wheels. She’s carried my heart across state lines, held the quiet in seasons of chaos, and now serves as a mobile art studio, workshop space, and creative cocoon. She’s chipped, quirky, and full of stories—just like me.

    Wherever she’s parked, I’m home.
