I am currently the Executive Director of The Prairie Enthusiasts and previously was the Director of Land Protection at the Jo Daviess Conservation Foundation. I am professionally trained as a restoration ecologist, and have 15 years of non-profit land conservation experience. I have attended Earth House for several years, and have also been a part of a small Pagan group in northwest Illinois, the Four Winds Sanctuary, where I was trained as co-High Priest with the group. I integrate my Pagan practices with my work in the non-profit land conservation sector.
