I live in Northern Michigan with my partner Monica. I work at a local Conservation District. I'm interested in all things sustainability, regenerative agriculture, and permaculture. I love music, meeting people, traveling, and outdoor activities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in an intentional farming Community for individuals with developmental differences. The philosophy at Community Homestead is "Community Members have diverse developmental abilities and disabilities. Our co-operative life enables everyone to flourish so that, together, we are a very able community. We are all ages, all abilities and disabilities, living and working together to sustain, protect, and enrich the human and natural environment. Everyone is a unique and valuable human being. Only by helping others do we find, and help, ourselves."
