In 2011, she founded one of Los Angeles’s most high-profile domestic and corporate recruitment agencies, serving elite entertainers, athletes, and prominent families.

For Gold, true guardianship is not about possession, it’s about service, transparency, and trust.

She approaches them as sovereign beings, each carrying memory, code, and purpose and ensures their stories are told and their integrity maintained.
Through the Artifact Guardians initiative, she is creating a transparent and ethical framework for research, stewardship, and public engagement rooted in the Law of One and Sovereignty Consciousness. Her mission is to ensure these artifacts and the wisdom they embody are preserved and shared for the benefit of all life, fostering understanding between ancient intelligence and modern humanity for generations to come.
