About me
I am a clinical herbalist, certified aromatherapist, writer, artist, medicinal herb grower, botanical sanctuary steward, musician, nonprofit executive, business manager, certified permaculture and social systems designer, creative director, and designer with over 35 years of creative development, marketing, and branding experience.
As a volunteer Executive Director of a global nonprofit organization, where I not only operate the day to day but also manage all social media, marketing, and communications programs, I am at the forefront of sustainability, environmental causes, humanitarian aid due to climate change, and the importance of conveying these messages to our customers and clients about our role and responsibility to our environment and each other. My design and nonprofit experience are a unique combination and a good fit for a juror.
As a certified permaculture designer with a dual certificate in social systems design, I focus my work on how we can best support eco-friendly, low waste, regenerative systems in the design of not only our land, garden, communities, and homes, but also our businesses, products, clients, customers, and industries. I bring a clear vision of earth friendly and ecologically centered regenerative design into all aspects of my life and work.
