Cory Sevin
I am “retired” from a 45 year career in healthcare. A nursing background was a foundation for finding and creating new ways to provide healthcare to teens, migrant families, individuals, families and communities; and new ways to provide care that were generative and life giving to those giving and recieving the care. A desire to help create environments where all can thrive-not just select few-was and is a directional force in my life. I am looking for communtiy to bring my energies, skills, and more to help craft a future that is life giving to all.
Rose Madrone
Working at the intersection of community building, filmmaking, sustainability, and education, Rose has created some effective tools with which to reinforce the importance of understanding how interconnected our world really is. Her film series of shorts, Connectivity Project, weaves together voice such as Fritjof Capra, Indigenous Wisdom Keepers, scientists, activists, and much more, empowering an understanding that our actions indeed make a huge difference in the world. Along with curricula that accompanies this work, schools and focus groups from 5th grade through adulthood have benefited from the conversations that are sparked by the this deeper way of understanding.
She is seeking ways for these films to be useful in the world, so please reach out if you want to learn more.

With a background in Botany, Herbal Medicine and sustainability, a sense of place has always been forefront, informing her actions. She has taken that sense of place and the importance of understanding how our actions impact others, and created tools to inspire awe, interconnections and a sense of responsibility.
Amber Kennedy
I am a student of environmental stewardship and striving everyday to learn more about how I can be a part of the movement to search for our place as humans beside the animals that have occupied Earth far longer then we have. I enjoy envisioning a future that utilizes modern technology and embraces the natural world in such a way that it builds our character to become stewards, seek peace within our culture to minimize economical gain and focus on internal development.
