Education & Experience
Continuing education is a passion of mine (hi, lifelong learner!!), but also an important part of my personal and professional development. As I deepen my learning, I grow my ability to serve my community through herbs and female focused birth and beyond work. My deepest joy comes from connecting people back to the glory of God’s great Creation.
Education & Experience
2011-2014 Living off grid in North Carolina in multiple structures on 2 different 80-90 acre properties. During this time, I learned from many of the people, who I lovingly call Mountain folks. They grew up doing this, harvesting for food and medicine, learning about all of the varies types of mushrooms, trees, plants, and lichens. It was during this time that I fell in love with nature and decided to switch gears from Midwifery studies to herbal studies.
