Hi there! I'm Allie:

artist, conservationist, land worker, herbalism student, & US Air Force veteran.

Having participated in large-scale destruction and war violence, I now carry a deep responsibility to cultivate life. Through my ongoing work in art, conservation, and agriculture, I have witnessed how we can open doors to caring for ourselves and for one another in ways governments cannot (and will not) do.

The more we learn about our interconnectedness with different beings, the more pathways we open toward conflict resolution, transformative justice, and compassionate understanding.

If you're interested in collaborating on an event or project around art, conservation, sustainable agriculture, or community building, please get in touch!
