Dynamic leader and communicator with a proven track record of fostering teamwork and collaboration at Camphill Village USA. One of my highlights was spearheading the Biodynamic Hemp Initiative, netting $700,000 in profits. Well experienced in event planning and community outreach, I excel in creating impactful, results, and am driven to discover new strategies for success while nurturing significant relationships. Able to contribute in both public speaking (in necessary) and organic farming techniques, cheesemaking, cooking, etc... I bring a unique blend of hard and soft skills to any team. I'm gentle, compassionate and appreciate my gift with humor.
Lead House Holder- I maintain our house community under a general heightened standard of excellence to ensure our home life is nearly the best it can be. I take cook organic meals daily, help our people with hygeine and general wellness. I attend Medical Appointments regularly and am in contact with nurses, doctors and dentists weekly.
Head cheesemaker- I've been responsible for the production and consistent handling of the villages cheese operation. We produce 10,000 pounds of raw cow cheese annually. I've trained in 10 cheesemakers and have trained throughout the northeast to better my skills.
Assistant to Lead Gardener- I've been a part of our 4 acre, biodynamic garden for 10 years. I've been responsible for the evolution of our garden by employing new techniques and strategies for weed mitigation and pest control. We lead a crew of up to 16 volunteers and villagers daily.
Head of Camphill's Biodynamic Hemp Initiative- In 2019 I lead a group of growers on a campaign to grow 11 acres as part of an alternative funding effort to raise additional funds for the village. We profitted $700,000 and networked with other local farms and businesses.
Wellness Group Chair- I've been primarily responsible for a small budget that aims to enhance recreational and outdoor opportunities for our village residence. Our group meets monthly and brainstorms for additional ideas to help the village become more dynamic in that regard.
I enjoy tennis, soccer, snow skiing, hiking and backpacking, football and the olympics.
