I have worked with children of all ages for my entire life. My positive pedagogy method has consistently demonstrated being effective in transforming any subject I have taught into a vehicle for teaching agency and focus and involving the whole child/youth in the learning process. Educating children on an organic farm has added a depth to my work as only real farm work can do.

I love to share my teaching method and my concrete tools with other educators. My approach has helped teachers create immediate positive change in their classroom, involving their students as the courageous, authentic and compassionate people they are ready to grow into.

Working with nature has fueled my passion for the visual arts. In my photography I capture the lessons and beauty I find in nature while going about my work. I sincerely wish that my books and images will delight and surprise you and inspire you to (re)connect with your world.

cherries and berries taste like,
ask the children and sparrows.
