I’m keen to collaborate with others working at the intersection of regenerative food systems, animal wellbeing, and participatory systems change. My background spans participatory design, artistic research, and environmental engagement, and I bring this lens to my current work as co-founder of FETCH—a framework for conscious canine care that connects companion animal health with planetary health through fresh food, energetics, and holistic systems thinking. I’d love to connect with others exploring: •Regenerative and ethically sourced pet food systems •The impacts of flea/tick chemical treatments on health and the environment •Human-animal-environment health and relationships •Creative and participatory methods for engaging diverse communities in agri-food transitions •Nature-connected and experiential approaches to communicating complexity and building shared visions for net zero futures I’m especially interested in co-creating initiatives that integrate emotional, ecological, and energetic dimensions of change—inviting both heart and system into the room. Let’s explore how the stories we tell about animals, land, and care can shape more regenerative futures.

About me

'Reimagining canine wellness as part of a larger ecological, emotional, and systemic whole' I'm a holistic canine wellness consultant, researcher, and community-builder working at the intersection of animal wellbeing, environmental health, and systems change. Through the Mystic Dog Mama podcast and as Co-Founder of FETCH: A Framework for Conscious Canine Care, I support a new paradigm of care—one that treats dogs not as isolated bodies with symptoms to fix, but as part of complex living systems that include food, behaviour, environment, and the deep bond with their humans. My background as a participatory artist and PhD researcher in art and design for wicked problems informs everything I do. I use creative, community-centred approaches to help dog guardians and changemakers navigate complexity, root-cause patterns, and planetary impact—with clarity and heart. ✨ FETCH is where canine health meets planetary health. We’re reframing how we care for dogs to align with ecological wellbeing, regenerative principles, and conscious public health. ✨Mystic Dog Mama is where soul meets the science of canine nutrition. I'm especially interested in connecting with: • Agroecology + regenerative farming partners • Conservation orgs exploring biodiversity, pollinator, and river health • Environmental health educators, integrative vets, and researchers • Visionaries and ecologists bridging soil and soul 🐾 Because how we care for our dogs is a reflection of how we care for everything. Let’s explore what’s possible when we weave together care, creativity, and consciousness.
