Walking with Geometry and Ecology
✨ This work grows where geometry and ecology meet — in the way patterns shape daily life, land, and relationship. It isn’t a fixed system or doctrine, but a living exploration: noticing flows, testing ideas, and seeing what emerges over time. Much of what I share comes out of our family’s daily rhythm: Together, we weave a life that’s equal parts practical and exploratory experimenting with design, and listening to how land and home want to flow.
This site is a place to compile what I notice and make it available. Some of it takes the form of explorations you can try yourself, some as flow audits of spaces and land, some as consulting for larger projects. And some shows up as my own field notes — glimpses of process, not finished thoughts.
💎 It’s all part of one thread: living more coherently, together with the land and each other.
About Jen
Rarely photographed, except in the wild, like nature I can be found in many states. Usually scribbling something in notebooks, pecking thoughts on a computer, or working on some “new idea” outside or in the kitchen, or something completely new! My interests and approaches straddle two worlds, the subtle and the measured, observed, scientific world
My formal education is in science- I hold an M.S. in Food Science from Cornell University and am completing my Ph.D at Cornell (my lab is in Geneva at Agritech) My research is related to sourcing regional hardwood species for aging wine and spirits (defining quality standards and flavor, exploring commercial viability) and opening a space for the question: how can we support white oak based ecological systems by using new wood sources and species?
My experiential learning and exploration outside of formal academic structures has led to new deepening interests in the relationship between geometry and ecology, and how geometry can be applied in everyday life in beneficial applied ways. This mirrors my life long interests in food, systems, ecology, and although I didn’t know that’s what it was called, structures of coherence.
