Re-weaving food system narratives

Re-weaving food system narratives
I’m a transdisciplinary researcher working at the intersection of food systems, sustainability education, and environmental memory. My work explores how intergenerational learning, place-based practice, and community co-design can reconnect people to food, place, and each other. Through school gardens, policy advocacy, and grassroots engagement, I examine how growing and sharing food can become acts of resistance, care, and cultural continuity in the face of ecological and social disruption.
​
Beyond academic research, this space also includes a personal blog where I reflect on the ideas shaping my work. I see research as praxis—an ongoing process of living the ethos of my work in my own life. Through writing, projects, and everyday practices, I engage with the questions I study, seeking ways to bridge theory and action.
​
Here, you'll find insights into my research, current projects, and reflections on sustainability in practice. I hope this space sparks curiosity and dialogue—thank you for visiting!
