Bio

Graduated from UNO with a B.S. in Sociology (minor Environmental Science). I’ve gone on to work in the non-profit sector, specifically in agriculture and food justice. I’m currently a program manager for a farming mentorship program specifically focused on gender justice in ag spaces. I’ve been working in agriculture since 2016 as a farm worker and educator. I got married in 2020 during the pandemic to my spouse Mike! We adopted a dog shortly after (Finn). We also have a cat named Sage that I adopted before we got married. Although I was very much an indoor kid during HS I now love being outdoors. I still love punk music and writing!
