About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Skill up, live thoughtfully, share, love.

ABOUT ME

I am originally from California and moved up to British Columbia for college. Soon after I began working on small, organic or biodynamic farms in British Columbia, California, and Wisconsin. I'm now on the move. In a place between working on farms and starting my own.

PHILOSOPHY

The plain fact is that the planet does not need more ‘successful’ people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every shape and form. – David Orr
