Planted in Miami.
Sprouted in Atlanta.
So, here's the story...
My path into this work is a bit unconventional, with my masters in acupuncture I learned that healing starts with awareness, balance, and connection, and how important it is to tune into the rhythms of our inner ecosystems. That perspective, along with my journey raising children and a lot of self-guided learning, inspired me to create Wild Sprout as a bridge, connecting curious young minds with meaningful spaces to explore, grow, and keep learning.
A community where kids, and their grown-ups, grow as stewards with curious minds, brave voices, and ready hands. Wild Sprout grew from this lived philosophy, weaving curiosity, civic engagement, and care for the earth into a shared story of connection and belonging.
It’s more than environmental literacy; it supports whole-child development through wonder, storytelling, and hands-on learning, nurturing a lifelong connection to the natural world.
