About Me
I've been interested in the natural world since the beginning. Growing up in a warm Mediterranean moutan side was where Earth's beauty first captivated me. My first job at a plant nursery was a great introduction to gardening. But working on a homestead in the countryside of Calabria, Italy, introduced me to the philosophy of Permaculture. After over a month, I was inspired by this way of life and the happiness derived from Permaculture. Now, I find myself here, driven by a deep desire to positively impact our planet and the well-being of my fellow Homo sapiens.
Vision statement
To create urban neighborhoods that allow people to effectively and efficiently live in harmony with nature and each other using these permaculture ethics.
