Jamie

Born in western Massachusetts, Jamie grew up on Florida’s Space Coast among the sand and citrus.  After graduating from the University of Florida with a degree in geography she chose to follow a hobby interest in plants and took a job as a delivery driver at a local Gainesville nursery.  Eventually returning to the Brevard County area Jamie has spent the past several years working in property research, her backyard container garden and most recently as a geospatial analyst.   After shadowing an agricultural missionary in Honduras her interest in food systems and availability had begun and her hunt for the right program to develop a skill base was underway.  Jamie is looking forward to learning and working with others who have a similar passion, tuning into a vision for her future in agriculture and driving in snow.  She also likes to get down with bicycles, kayaks, maps and books.
