I have to update my profile because I just became farm Manager in Arroyo Grande, CA.
Old profile: I'm an educator, gardener, and handyman living in Ventura, CA. I've worked on the boards of bicycle and gardeners cooperatives. On weekends I build and cook at community gardens. I served 6 years in the air force repairing avionics systems on combat search and rescue helicopters, among other things, on Okinawa, in England and the Mediterranean. I'm a permaculture designer and yogi. My specialty is preparing dinner with a few fresh ingredients and whatever my host has in their kitchen while telling travel stories :)

Hang my feet out the back of a C-130 while flying over the Mediterranean Ocean. Another thing was starting an entrepreneurial education company that hosts shark-tank style competitions for students in my hometown.
