Resume
My work is informed and fueled by my current and past studies, work projects, community engagement, activism and life experiences.
It's focus on human belongingness and interconnection with the wider world, as well as what I came to call 'joyful ecology', came through years of field experiences and conversations, as much as it came from theory and classrooms. I recognize the inherent complexities in summarizing life experiences and hence offer below only a short summary of experiences that shaped my current work practice.
