Summary

I have worked at Iowa Western Community College for 1pproximately 4 years in the Greenhouse.

I have collaborated with non-porofit organizations with an emphasis on communication, organization and food insecurity. I have enjoyed working in the field with trans cultural groups and learning from these farmers and assisting in obtaining farm land, plants and educating them.

I look forward to future progress and collective attitudes in the urban farming area.

I also look forward to learning about aquponics, the care and feeding of fish and plants to increase production twice to 3 times.

I enjoy hosting tours and providing information and support to students and instructors.
