Botanist, herbalist, wild food tending specialist, educator at the Columbines School of Botanical Studies. My home is in Chanchiifin, Kalapuya ilihi, known as Eugene, OR. I hold a BS in botany/ecology from the Evergreen State College. I was honored to have the privilege to help edit the taxonomic keys to the Flora of the Pacific Northwest, Second Edition, 2018. My special interest is wild Apiaceae taxonomy and uses, human-wild plant relationships in general, plant taxonomy in general, rewilding and regenerative land tending practices, returning land and resources back to indigenous peoples to fundamentally return society to a reciprocal relationship with land and life.
