ABOUT

I live in Missoula, Montana. For work, I run a business – montanafruittrees.com – that designs and installs small and large scale sustainable orchards and vineyards. In January 2020, I finished my M.S. in Systems Ecology from the University of Montana. I love to travel and learn about other world views. I believe language to be at the epicenter of learning about any culture and therefore place emphasis on learning the language wherever I travel.

PHILOSOPHY

"Big minds talk about ideas; average minds talk about events; and small minds talk about people."
-Eleanor Roosevelt

Algo increíble que he hecho

I hitchhiked from Córdoba, Argentina to Machu Picchu when I was 21.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love teaching Ecology and specifically from an applied perspective which uses Systems Science. I'm a learner, teacher, and practitioner of Systems Ecology. In the past I taught Spanish, English, and Portuguese on the side. I ran a non-profit for three years from 2014-2017. I like to cook, bake, ferment and experiment with other ways of processing food. The process of skills acquisition interests me. Lots to discuss!
