Amy graduated from Wittenberg University with a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Geography and a minor in Education.

Amy is passionate about the human connection to the natural world and living in balance with the earth. She carries with her a lifetime of experience and education exploring this relationship. Her dedication to advocating for the land and the plants and animals that call it home was born from watching a beloved neighboring farm and forest turned into a housing development when she was a young child.
Amy is originally from northeast Ohio. After college, she was fortunate to live in the mountains of Colorado, the forests of New Hampshire, by the ocean in Rhode Island, and amongst the farms of central Maryland before returning to her roots in Ohio in 2013. She currently lives in Chagrin Falls with her son, George, and daughter, Grace where she enjoys meditating daily, gardening, spending time with family and friends, and working on her home. She loves traveling to new places and spending time outdoors, especially hiking and camping with her black lab Willow.
