I am a 33 year old who is living in Connecticut with my husband and children. I first took the free course two years ago and fell in love with permaculture.  THIS is the what i have been looking for since college.  I went to the University for Writing and Rhetoric and Women and gender studies.  Due to health and family circumstances, i never earned my degree.  I have been practicing permaculture on my homestead, always using my favorite, the problem is the solution. Although my choices are guided by the ethics and principles, i need better designing for it to be a true permaculture. I am working towards earning my Permaculture Design Certification. I have also been a Reiki Master for over ten years now.  I consider myself a life long student. I love learnin about everything that I can. I have taken most of the free courses offered here over the past few years. I look forward to expanding my mind and diving deep into how to truly embody the ethics and principles.
