Public Speaking & Ecological Design Education is one of my greatest passions! I love helping design students and property owners to transform their understanding of natural systems and how to live in harmony with ecological patterns and principles of life on Earth. I share a Nature-based HOLISTIC DESIGN SCIENCE framework with general lessons and classes ranging from environmental landscape design & high performance building to talks and classes on my signature system called Appreculture Design, while also occasionally getting into the detailed nitty gritty of project topics such as solar energy plus storage, water harvesting principles & application, food forest system design & development, gray water, green infrastructure, and resilient land use. Education from the Heart of Nature to the Heart of Humanity.

Sustainability Consulting & Regenerative Design

Comprehensive Site Assessment, Design, Planning & Implementation Assistance

With formal training in Environmental Horticulture and hands on experience with Natural Building, Council Leadership, and Permaculture Design, and over two decades of experience with residential and commercial land use consultation, I’ve helped hundreds of homeowners analyze their property goals and objectives from a big-picture integrated design perspective to solidify a smart, abundant and resilience plan for their property. Together we clarify the property vision, site needs and goals, design elements, and priority areas for success. And, for a select few clients, I provide comprehensive property development & construction project management.

Community & Corporate Program Management

Occasionally, I Will Assist with Program Management & Onsite Design Execution

Once we have assessed site goals and needs and the desired design outcome from an integrated design perspective, we can formalize implementation plans, and begin engaging consultants and contractors, however, sometimes the most challenging part of an integrated property design and development is translating that design into the actual implementation of programs and construction of infrastructure, landscapes & buildings. Experience and details matter. If you want to build a property that is in deep coherence, harmony and alignment with the principles of Nature and Ecology, I assist in the process to ensure the desired outcome. I will often spend time with select clients on their properties or within their organizations, leading workshops or meeting as we build out the property paying special attention to certain critical components for success.
