Descripción

Equal parts social butterfly and independent introvert, I do my best to live my life in harmony with natures cycles.

Reciprocity is a big theme in my life; how and what can I give back?

I prioritize refilling my cup through dance, yoga, singing, meditation/breathwork, reading, and time with loved ones.

Marrying my love of art and ecology I design, install, and maintain gardens with an emphasis on native species to cultivate wildlife habitat and aesthetic beauty. I have my Permaculture Design Certificate.

I'm also a writer and artist.

Although I enjoy many art mediums, I'm most practiced in painting and I'd love to paint you something for your space.

I can also offer art classes, breathwork sessions, and yoga classes, as I'm a certified yoga instructor teaching on and off for 6 years, practicing 16.

As I like to say, I'm on my path in becoming a wise woman. I value personal growth, family/relationships, community, and experiential learning.

In addition to what I've already shared, I spent 3 seasons building hiking trails in the Colorado mountains. Our work took place primarily in the alpine (11,000 ft) where we'd construct sustainable trails using boulders and other natural materials while restoring habitat which had been negatively impacted by erosion.

What I loved most about that role was living in the backcountry, collaborating with my team, leading volunteer groups, and overcoming major physical and emotional challenges.

In the off season I spent time as an eco-kayak tour guide, section hiking the Mogollon Rim Trail, and living at Arcosanti, an experimental community in Arizona known for its star wars-esque architecture.

When I was growing up my dad's close friend owned a pet store and so I was blessed with the gift of caring for a wide variety of animals. On the farm I have some experience milking dairy cows, caring for goats, horses. and chickens.

As a house/pet sitter, nanny, and forest school teacher, I love getting to know your favorite humans, animals, and plants.

I've taught a few years on and off at a completely outdoor forest school in Boulder, Colorado for children ages 2.5-6, although my age range of care extends from 6 months-13.

Caring for the Earth, people, and creatures living here is a guiding light for me -- also a birth doula and would love to connect on that as well.

I pride myself on my adaptability, can-do attitude, curiosity, and playfulness.

Language lights me up (Spanish and French).
