I am a Co-Founder of Root Connection, a regenerative agriculture and landscaping company, that applies the ethics of Earth Care, People Care, and Future Care to all of our projects. This ethos takes many forms, as we co-create with plants to generate better medicine, develop resilient systems that don't require synthetic inputs, and create healing spaces for all of our clients (and their clients) to enjoy.

My training in horticulture was highly focused on research (I am a research fellow at Oregon State University) and focused on both Organic production and plant breeding. This built on my strong health care background where I was a clinical research coordinator, researching many of the new biologic drugs that are currently on the market for autoimmune disorders. This pairing of skillsets gives me a unique capacity to understand and study the human-medicine, plant-soil, and human-planet interactions and how these connections can be strengthened to create the highest level of health and healing possible.
