About Me

In 2019, I quit my job as a Data Technology Consultant to pursue a long-held goal of traveling. I self-studied HTML, CSS, and the GoogleMapsAPI to build a website to organize and share my travel research. I have since updated my website using Elementor and WordPress. I traveled in Australia, East Asia, and Southeast Asia and one of many highlights was WWOOFing on a small farm in Kyushu, Japan. I’m am currently the Trading Digital Coordinator at Sucafina coffee trade house.

I am a strategic thinker who approaches problems holistically. I am self-motivated and pride myself in being an effective communicator. I am actively searching for job opportunities to use my data and agroecology skills to support the transformation of food systems towards a more socially and ecologically sustainable future.

I am passionate about cooking and fermenting local ingredients and I love to read and write about food and study languages (Spanish, Hebrew, Hungarian, Swahili, Japanese, Italian, Basque, French).

Quotes that Inspire Me

"Most of the world’s food is still grown, collected and harvested by over 2.5 billion small-scale farmers, pastoralists, forest dwellers and artisanal fisherfolk…Collectively, these smallholders are by far the largest investors in farming and land, and produce at least 70 percent of the world’s food."

Michel P. Pimbert

Food Sovereignty in Encyclopedia of Food Security and Sustainability

“If agroecology is not based on a shift in power away from elite actors and towards the agency of food producers and strengthening of democracy, it can easily devolve into a technical fix with little potential for wider transformation”

Anderson, C. R., Bruil, J., Chappell, M. J., Kiss, C., and Pimbert, M. P.

Agroecology Now !

"Eating with the fullest pleasure -- pleasure that does not depend on ignorance -- is perhaps the profoundest enactment of our connection with the world. In this pleasure we experience and celebrate our dependence and our gratitude, for we are living from mystery, from creatures we did not make and powers we cannot comprehend."

Wendel Berry
