My partner Chris and I have a love of wilderness adventure, harvesting and cooking wild and home grown foods, travel, art and community building. Chris is Facilities Manager and Campus Planner for SSIS and a working visual artist with a degree in Landscape Architecture.  To balance our professional lives we stay active and strive for holistic wellness. We are passionate about cycling and gardening - hopefully inspiring others to lighten their carbon footprint. Before readying to leave the U.S. to work internationally, we have lived in Juneau, Alaska for eleven years, and later Portland, Oregon for seven years. Presently, we are in Saigon, Vietnam going on year nine!
