I aspire toward a future where kids and adults alike - from all walks of life, backgrounds and beliefs - can come together to co-create environments that propel environmental health and wellness. To inspire others to be urban farmers and gardeners. Being of service, being Love and being your word are the driving forces behind all that I do.

After more than a decade coordinating and managing Dr. Bronner’s All-One event department (MFE), it was time to pursue my own passion and dreams alongside my family. Duomo Culture is my newest project which includes cultivating an urban regenerative garden space for events, community gatherings, food as medicine… and where we can “grow más love.”
I’ve been working in gardens for over 40 years. From a young age, I could be found outside with my hands in the dirt driven by a desire to establish a deeper and more harmonious connection to Mother Nature and our indigenous spirit. Teaching has also been woven into many facets of my life and career, as I am passionate about connecting others to the power of nature, while also having as much fun as possible in the process.
With certifications from both the Titleist Performance Institute and the C.H.E.K. Institute, I was able to work with kids and adults on a much deeper level, specializing in teaching and assessing physical fitness and the improvement of fine motor skills. I continue to draw upon these teachings whether I’m working in the garden with students or clients, or teaching kids at an event with Little Shepherds Nature Lab.
I bring with me over 35 years experience facilitating and initiating events, ranging from one-off festivals to Camp Director for the 350+ Dr. Bronner’s Burning Man camp, as well as other unique projects. My intention throughout these endeavors has always been to cultivate relationships and build community through music/arts and education. In my experience, music is instrumental in bringing healing and culture to communities, throughout San Diego and the world.
I’ve been active in the urban regeneration world since 2012. I offer design consultation for urban gardens, healthy food & community development programs to businesses, agencies, and people who are planning, building, and developing communities in the greater San Diego area. I implement projects and help a diverse range of people learn how to grow food, work together and implement sustainable healthy food & garden programs.
I hope you join me in cultivating and growing this powerful vision of love that Duomo Culture is propelling. Let us grow alongside it.
