ROOTED in Gratitude
A reflection from the Vermont Womenpreneur Summit Every time I share my story — about trees, roots, and second chances — I remember how closely our personal and professional growth are connected. Speaking at the Vermont Womenpreneur Summit this summer was one of those full-circle moments. The theme of this “TEDx-like” talk was Gratitude , and it couldn’t have been more fitting. Standing in front of hundreds of creative, successful, determined, and generous women, I quickly r

ROOTED in science...
... GROWING through collaboration Full Circle: Phase I > Peak Pitch > Elevate VT > Phase II When our team completed the NSF SBIR Phase I project earlier this year, it felt like reaching the end of a long trail — only to see new challenges and opportunities branching out ahead.

Behind the Mic with Jay Worth
When I first started sharing stories, about trees, technology, and the people behind both , I didn’t realize how much the conversations themselves would become part of the bigger story. Earlier this year, I joined two podcast hosts — Jay Worth at Green Industry Perspectives and Angelique Robb at SYNKD On Air — for conversations that surprised me in the best way. Each came from a different corner of the green industry and brought a unique curiosity that revealed new layer
