Unlocking artistry, intuition and passion: Self-Actualization for Collective Resilience

I focused much of my undergraduate studies toward understanding the physical strategies of sustainable development: organic agriculture, green building, renewable energy, etc. I then began searching for the political and economic mechanisms to implement this, so I studied green business and collaborative community development, and developed an organic student-run cafe on campus.

About Me

Bio



Welcome to the brave new world, y'all!

Hope you all brought your popcorn poppers, cuz its gonna be one helluva show!

I have an educational background in social enterprise and community development, ecological agriculture and sustainable design. I co-founded a student-run organic cafe at my college.

 

I am also a hobby artist, wilderness explorer, meditator and open-source currency geek.  

 

I am currently scheming to create a space to catalyze urban ecological and social resilience. (Sustainability Nerd Translation: Think Evolver 4d *meets* worldchanging.org *meets* Green For All *meets* Habitat for Humanity *meets* Architecture for Humanity...)

Skills and talents
I have some deep wilderness travel experience, mostly canoe tripping near Hudson's Bay in Canada. I also spent a few months immersed in the bush of northwestern Australia, an ancient land with some of the oldest rock art in the world.
