THE FELLOWSHIP

I am a migrant farmer, activist, revolutionary and student. My journey began in my great grandmother's garden, on long antelope hunts with my grandpa and cleaning fish with my mom by the river. They taught me respect for the animals and the cost of their lives. They taught me the patience to grow food from seed. But the flip of a coin initiated my journey to freedom. That moment set me on a path of rediscovery—which became a deep commitment to food justice, ecological care, and collective healing. Deepening my relationship with the land helped me reconnect with my family’s history, navigate loss, grief, and responsibility, while reimagining how I engage with nature and community.

My past work has ranged from television to hands-on labor at different farms, experiences that shaped my creativity and adaptability. Taking me from Monacan land to unceded Dwuamish territories. I integrate practices like upcycling and waste reduction into daily life and business practices, striving to minimize harm and honor the resources I steward. Along the way, I’ve challenged myself and others to rethink our assumptions about food, culture, our connection to the earth, and our overall sense of belonging.

Today, I’m working toward building a cooperative business and land trust that supports migrant, indigenous and marginalized communities. My vision is a shared space for farming, cultural preservation, and collective healing, nourishing both people and the planet—where land and food serve as tools for justice, sustainability, and collective empowerment.
