ABOUT ME

I am a full time americorps volunteer working in glendive montana for a non-profit co-op. I am a chef, and musician. My roommate and I are both volunteers and have just recently moved to eastern Montana and are loving it.

PHILOSOPHY

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I camped/drove 13,000 miles around the united states in 5 weeks. Saw about 20-30 state and national parks, and met some really amazing people along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Living in eastern montana has been quite a change for me, coming from the east coast. Since my roomate and I moved here we have learned so much about farming, food policy, and sustainability. We are really involved in getting local food into schools and institutions and are constantly helping to strengthen the community. With that said, we love to share out knowledge to any passerby's and hope that they can take a little piece of what we've learned with them on their journey.
