Howdy,<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m a farmer and technologist with more than a decade of hands-on experience in both worlds. I help small agricultural organizations solve practical problems involving websites, technology, systems, research, writing, grants, and farm operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My approach is simple: understand how the operation actually works, identify what is getting in the way, and build a solution that is simple and useful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I spent more than ten years farming organic vegetables in Utah before setting out to work and learn on farms abroad. I also have a background in software development and have worked on technical, administrative, marketing, and grant projects for farms, food businesses, and agricultural nonprofits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That combination lets me move comfortably between the field and the computer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
