In the heart of the desert, where the sun paints the landscape with hues of warmth and resilience, every plant is a testament to nature's ingenious adaptation. In the arid embrace of the sands, botanical wonders thrive against all odds, whispering tales of tenacity and beauty. The desert, a living testament to the poetry of survival, unfolds its secrets to those who pause to listen, revealing that even in the harshest environments, life finds a way to bloom.


Hello, my name is Christina, I am based in the Mojave Desert but am from the Eastern Coachella Valley in the Colorado Desert, a subsection of the Sonoran Desert. My interest in the natural world was ingrained as a child, growing up in the desert among the very native plants that have sculpted my desire in studying ecology. I'm a botanist, environmental activist, UC Climate Steward, California Naturalist, Bio-regional and Clinical Herbalist.
I am a subcontractor for an environmental consulting firm, I host naturalist hikes, plant ID walks, plant surveys, hands-on herbalism workshops, herbal consultations, and have an online ZOOM Foundational Herbalism apprenticeship.
