WIL
'Reconnection & Healing'
My journey began at the age of two on King Island, where a deep connection with nature first took root. Now living with my beautiful wife and two children on the vibrant Sunshine Coast, where my path is always intertwined with the natural world. As a holistic deep health coach, I came to understand that nurturing the soil is crucial not only for food health but also for the well-being of Mother Earth herself. This insight guided my journey, deepening my connection and fostering a profound relationship with the soil—a journey filled with connection and wonder.

During challenging times, the soil became for me an unexpected source of solace, offering a profound sense of interconnectedness and unconditional love. This journey brought me back to my roots, where true deep healing happens, and where I now live in true alignment with nature's rhythms.
​
Today my aspiration is to impart the wisdom of Mother Earth, guiding others to rediscover their true essence by reconnecting with the soil. Join me on this shamanic journey of life, where the soil is more than ground beneath us—it is a powerful source of healing and connection. Together, let’s nurture Mother Earth’s vitality and discover our own paths to genuine alignment.

'Regeneration & Community'
As the long-standing renegade, I recognised early on that planting food is not just a revolution but a path to reclaiming power. This realisation has fuelled my dedication not only to cultivating food systems, but also to nurturing the human beings who tend to them.
At the heart of my mission is a strong urge to foster community through gardening. Connecting to your food has never been more crucial and I support seasonal, locally grown, spray-free, and organic produce, all nourished by clean water—a vision I believe should be a universal goal. Having traveled extensively across Australia, I am deeply committed to revitalising poorly managed farmland. I passionately argue that Outdated farming practices among generational farmers are harming the country and its water sources, advocating instead for regenerative farming as the solution.
Looking forward, I find great joy in planting food for future generations, especially in planting food trees. This simple act can transform communities and landscapes and I truly believe that no planting endeavour is too large or too small. The philosophy is clear: Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.

'Healing & Nurturing'
​When I first discovered Syntropics more than six years ago, I was thrilled beyond measure. It was as if I had stumbled upon the ultimate solution for cultivating a bountiful array of fruits and vegetables, whether in the confines of a backyard or across expansive farmland, all while avoiding the use of harmful chemicals.
The essence of Syntropics lies in its innovative approach to soil management. By maintaining a protective layer of mulch and integrating support species that grow harmoniously alongside your main crops, we enhance and rejuvenate the soil naturally.
We invite you to join us in this transformative journey—feel the earth beneath your feet by taking off your shoes and stepping into your backyard, farm, or even a nearby field. We are dedicated to assisting you in designing the most effective food forest tailored to support and nourish your family and friends.
Our mission extends beyond merely healing and regenerating your garden. We aim to instill a profound sense of healing and nurturing in everyone involved in this process. Together, we can cultivate not just plants, but a vibrant, supportive community connected through the shared joy of growing and harvesting food in harmony with nature.
