Descrição

Recent graduate of the University of California, Santa Barbara with a major in Environmental Studies and minors in Art and Professional Writing (Science Communication). Seeking to travel Europe for the next month, making meaningful connections, exploring, and learning new skills. I have previous workaway experience in the US, and am super excited to have similar opportunities abroad!
At UCSB I did research in sustainable agriculture, as well as worked for a community garden and a local composting organization. I'm deeply passionate about regenerative agriculture and reconnecting with our food systems; I have skills in both the physical aspect of this venture--I love to be outside farming, making garden boxes, turning compost etc, but additionally studied science communications and worked as the marketing manager for Isla Vista Compost Collective, and am more than happy to help out with any social media, writing, or marketing needs! I've also worked as a crew member for Salmon Lake Lodge, which entailed guests services, cabin maintenance and cleaning, weekly cooking for guests, amongst a wide variety of other miscellaneous tasks. I am physically fit and comfortable with basic power tools and saws, and would love to continue to build my home repair or carpentry skills!
