About

It all started when…

I was in the process of finding a balance for a hectic schedule in an urban environment and movement, nutrition, and gardening became the focus of my practice.

The first seeds to create an urban garden were planted on our rooftop in Brooklyn. One of the big reasons to start a garden was that our son was a baby and I wanted to show him where food came from.

I grew vegetables and herbs for almost 10 years in Brooklyn. Right before the pandemic, we moved to an old charming house across the river. Every day, I’m reminded of how important was to plant that first seed in Brooklyn. It really changed perspectives and values.

I received a certification as a trainer from Hunter College, and recently became an Environmental Steward from Rutgers University.

I create gardens at my home and with the community. I work with a variety of materials like seeds & native plants, looms, yarn and textiles, prints made with homemade inks from the plants I grow, photography, and performance.

My home and garden are one studio.
