Description

I am a (previously) mechanical engineer amidst a big lifestyle and career change, as I search for a way to live in better accordance with my values and more harmoniously with the surrounding ecosystem. I am very interested in ecology, permaculture/horticulture, agroforestry, natural building, communal living, and conservation/restoration. I am looking for a place to learn, grow, and contribute in these areas, experience these alternate lifestyles, connect with like minded people, and help spread this knowledge to others! I am beyond excited to start this journey with you! I have experience designing, building, fixing, teaching, leading, and I consider myself a quick learner. I have a "mediator" type personality, and consider myself hardworking and easygoing.
