After almost two years traveling and studying on organic and permaculture farms in South America, I returned a little over a year ago to settle down in San Diego.

I saw that while everyone needs help, the dream really does need changing here in the United States. As one of the largest producers of "waste" (just inappropriately designed for outputs) and consumption, an ounce of change here means a pound less is extracted or degraded elsewhere.

After getting officially PDC'd with Josh Robinson of San Diego Sustainable Living Institute, I've started entering the permaculture folds of San Diego County, and I'm excited at the trajectory we're taking!

The biggest goal? Collaboration. No more competion, silence, talking behind backs. We're all in this together. It's time to see that our moment in the grace of light and life is to break our historical programming and write the new hero's journey.

Looking forward to it, and what we can create and pass down for the next generation to nurture and build upon!
