About Me

I have always been drawn to the interconnectedness of life. As a child growing up in a family of gardeners, I was captivated the moment I saw my first seed sprout. The old-growth forests of Washington only intensified this sense of awe in me, sparking a curiosity to read landscapes. Now, as a landscape designer and owner of my own business, Rainshadow Permaculture Design, I specialize in residential, homestead, and small-scale farm regenerative designs. As a permaculturist, I am passionate about creating sustainable, harmonious environments that benefit all living beings on our planet. In my free time, you can find me in the garden with my partner Dru and our cat Kirby, or searching for mushrooms somewhere on the Olympic Peninsula. It is there that I feel most like myself!
