More details about your skills
I have lived with and helped start communities.
BSc civil engineering , focus on structures. Personal focus has always been on sustainable design. I have helped building an earthship, bamboo structures, and I want to learn more!
Living in community I have helped design and maintain food forests and most recently have been working with an urban farming non-profit developing their Edible Landscapes program.
During college I worked in restaurants, including a mostly local and organic burger spot and a local vegan restaurant. Between there and community kitchens, I developed a passion for cooking and sharing food. I have also worked as a natural foods chef for a non-profit farm's agricultural internship program.
I like to learn how things work and fix/optimize systems. I work on my own car and I'm a quick learner.
