My Background
My background is unconventional. I helped launch the early organic agriculture movement from my 50-acre farm in Maine before beginning a lifelong search to answer two of the most important questions in people’s lives.
What work is right for me?
How do I create a fulfilling life?
That search became my life’s work.
