As a skilled facilitator, committed citizen, and professor in the action-oriented field of community and regional planning, I am committed to facilitating research and collective action that enhances our capacity to co-create sustainable, resilient, and regenerative communities accessible to all, now and in the future. Together, confronted by the challenges of climate change, we can create a just transition to a regenerative economy. As a regenerative designer, I delight in leading place-based processes that cultivate the ability in people, communities & other living systems to renew, evolve & thrive. As one of my students recently expressed to me, my "ability to bring a group of people together and get the best out of them is a gift."
