Hello! I’m Josh. I’m a writer, eco-chaplain at Kin SF, and a master’s student at the California Institute of Integral Studies, studying at the intersection of ecology, spirituality, and religion.
I believe relationship is why we are here: plant, animal, human, mineral, fungi, and all the rest.
My enchantment with the living world began early, during my childhood summers at zoo school in Kansas, and on family vacations exploring the wonders and beauty of America’s national parks.
Grounded in both my European and Citizen Potawatomi heritage and sustained by a lifelong connection with Spirit, my work is in healing and deepening the sacred relationship between the human and more-than-human worlds.
Kin SF is an Earth church I lead in San Francisco—a gathering place for many traditions...scientific and spiritual, indigenous and poetic, ancient and contemporary. We recognize the Earth as a living community that we belong to.
