For the last 5 years I've been working in urban agriculture as a garden educator. Most recently I completed a 2 year certificate in Nutrition Consulting. I enjoy sharing my passion for good food through conversation, cooking for others and geeking out on conversations about plants and ecology.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Be part of the People's Tribunal in Bangalore, India in 2011. I witness 21 people speak up against large chemical companies to tell their stories of manipulation, betrayal and deceit at the hands of Monsanto and Syngenta and Bayer and the 3 other large trans-national chemical companies. It was so powerful.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share gardening tips and cooking tips.
