Beschreibung

Howdy, I'm Ezra. I'm originally from La Mesa, a small city in San Diego County. I am passionate about environmental wellbeing, making connections with people, and furthering my knowledge through thoughtful interactions and new perspectives. I am an Agroecology major at the University of California, Santa Cruz but I far prefer a more hands-on approach to learning. As a result, I intermittently take time off from school. I'm on a self-guided fieldtrip as a means to learn as much as I can about sustainable food production and deviate from the redundancy of conventional living.

My interests range from food forests to foraging and everything in between. I am hoping to learn practical skills and knowledge pertaining to my future path as well as life lessons in order to become the best person I can be.

So far, I've gained experience in the hospitality industry and gardened on a campsite/organic garden at the base of Mt. Hood in Oregon, accommodated guests, practiced permaculture principles, and became a "professional" roofer at an inn/regenerative farm in New York, and harvested grapes, cleared trails, built a rock wall, and baked bread on a 40 acre homestead in North Carolina. I am involved with Food Not Bombs, an all volunteer program that shares free meals, produce and baked goods with the local community, primarily serving unhoused folks.

I've been vegan for a little over three years now. In high school, I was a varsity wrestler and beach volleyball player, but I'm taking a break from organized sports. I like to hike, swim in lakes and ponds, and skate. I enjoy traveling but remain conscious of my impact and attempt to use the least impactful methods I can find. I started learning Mandarin in elementary school and I'm conversational, almost fluent. I listen to all genres of music. I've recently started riding a motorcycle, and I thoroughly enjoy it. I've also been teaching myself how to play guitar.
