About StagPath
StagPath connects others to the landscale through curiosity, ecology, and art. It began as a way to help others see the world around them with an ecological lens—through foraging, restoration work, handmade creations—deepening understanding of the landscape, ourselves, and each other.I host workshops and events, offer personalized nature guidance for those who need coaching support, and create tools (like stickers, mystery boxes, and other educational content) to help bridge the disconnect with our surroundings. I live on a 10-acre retired horse ranch in Central Ohio where my partner and I are restoring habitats and growing a food forest primarily featuring wild foods native to our ecoregion.Want to hear more about how it all started? Take a look at my Shout Out Ohio Interview. In this Q&A, I share my journey, what inspires my work, and how StagPath took shape.

Upcoming Events
Central Ohio Outdoors Fall Gathering
Join StagPath this October of 2025 to connect with a community of nature lovers and skill builders! I'll be presenting a show and tell of some of Ohio's amazing bones, stones, artifacts, artifacts, plants, and more! More details will be released as the date nears.
