An architect as a farmer spreading permaculture education and community lifestyle.
Greetings for the day !
I am a bachelor of architecture, a certified permaculture designer & a trained
mindfulness facilitator practicing my learnings for the regeneration of my village,
its land and the people since 2021.
I have worked on projects about rainwater-harvesting, bio-diverse plantation and soil management projects across 11 states of the Indian sub-continent as a land design and planning professional.
My work as a facilitator involves collaboration for short & long term education workshops for adults and kids in alternative schools. I love to listen to the participants and enable their capacity to lead their ways of community living and share their body of knowledge.
I also try to impart essence of Sustainable Development Goals to the young minds of my students as an assistant professor, in designing built environment in my university. We also established nutrition garden designs for experiential learning about edible landscapes for hands-on understanding .
Primary interests: Nature regeneration, Childcare & education, Women livelihood creation through handcrafted skills, Mindful learning & engaging with communities, Slow travel and adventures
