I am a second generation Permaculturalist, having grown up with a hobby farm in the Noosa hinterland. At the age of 11 in 1992 I attended the Australian Permaculture Convergence & Expo at Crystal Waters, SE Qld. In 1994 I completed my first Permaculture course at the age of 13 (Bill Mollison told me I was the youngest in the world at the time), which was in Tena, Equador.
I was awarded my Permaculture Diploma in Site Development, Site Design, and Research in January 2000. Later I graduated with a Bachelor of Enviromental Science, majoring in "Ecology and conservation biology" and "Land and Water Management". I then went on to complete a Masters of Environmental Management.
In 2010 I managed Zatuna Farm, home of the Permaculture Reseach Institute Australia. Here I managed staff, woofers and students and taught classes in the use of farm tools.
I am currently working as an environmental consultant and building a business in permaculture hand tools and new technology solar.
As a consultant I offer services in landscape designs, from large scale sustainable agricultural systems to suburban back-yards.
I provide services in new solar technology, grid switching, stand alone and converting grid feed to a grid switching system. I also offer sales in permaculture hand tools and instruction on there correct use. I also offer environmental weed removal using hand tools leaving the native trees behind.
I am avaliable for work Australia wide and overseas. Travel time and costs are added to the consultancy fee.
