My work

This is about more than gardens. It’s about tending systems that sustain both people and planet through justice, community, and joy.

My work weaves regenerative garden design, education, and movement-building to help communities reimagine our relationships with food, land, and each other. Through Rooting Resilience, I’m growing a network of people who see gardens as tools for connection, healing, and change. Whether it’s leading workshops, helping someone create a thriving garden ecosystem, or tending a baby forest garden of my own, this work grows from years of learning, unlearning, and tending.

I’m a Master Gardener Volunteer, a permaculture design certificate holder, a Stinner Climate Ambassador, and a dedicated advocate for food sovereignty and climate resilience, with experience alongside organizations like the Sunrise Movement and the Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association. All of it is rooted in a vision of a world where, both literally and metaphorically, everybody eats.
