Hi, from an ancient sand dune in Florida. Iā€™m an herbalist, lapsed line cook, visual artist, & author.

I believe all humans are creative, anyone can cook, & everyone is an herbalist.

In my herbal practice, I prioritize practical skills and knowledge that bring my students and clients into more authentic connection with themselves, each other, and the natural world of which we are a part.

I apprenticed at Commonwealth Center for Holistic Herbalism and studied clinically at the Center for Herbal Studies while I worked as a line cook, kitchen educator, food stylist, and private chef in New York City.

My book Plant Magic: Herbalism in Real Life came out in 2020.

In 2022 while in residency at Atlantic Center for the Arts, I initiated PLANT-BASED PRACTICE. In this work I perform herbal consultations with artists. I sit weekly with sculptors, conceptual artists, film & sound makers, photographers, choreographers, writers, & others to help them find their plants within a partnership that prioritizes reciprocity over monetary transactions.
