Let’s co-create something wonderful!
How may we serve you?
We want to co-create a world where skill-sharing is the norm, everyone has something to offer or trade as far as we are concerned. But it’s not about what we can “get” from one another, this skill-sharing is about being and co-existing in an intentional, unconditionally loving way that benefits everyone who is directly, and indirectly, involved.
Our “life resumes” are multi-faceted. Kyle is a Mechanical Engineer by trade and education, he is an expert in additive manufacturing (3D printing) and materials research, and is skilled in CAD, hands-on-building, welding, automotive work, and more. Cassie is a certified permaculturist, she homeschools the kids, designs food forests, and is skilled in energy work - including sound healing and spiritual mentorship.
We’ve been together 18 years and counting and in that time we’ve grown and experienced so much. We’ve owned and run a 7 acre permaculture farm in Tennessee, so holistic animal husbandry and building mobile infrastructure is on this list; and we’ve been parenting our children in a consciously connected way from the start - so there’s a lot to share there, including relationship renewal on many levels.
Permaculture
Cassie is a certified Permaculturalist, Kyle is strong, Natalie and Colton know what’s safe to forage! We used to steward 7 acres of land in Knoxville, TN as a permaculture farm; working with the land to setup closed loop systems to honor and create a loving relationship with it. We raised dairy goats, chickens, turkeys and ducks; and we prepared ourselves for pigs. We also cared for livestock guardian dogs, cats and a horse. Kyle can build just about anything (and builds it well), and Cassie can plan the system based on your desires. Let’s create together, and we’ll share resources to help you learn!
Energy Healing
Cassie understands that she’s not the “healer” - she’s just the vessel for the transfer of healing energy. Using her hands, voice and sound-healing instruments she assists others in remembering how they can heal themselves, and teaches others how to connect to that knowledge that we all have within. Kyle has tapped into that knowledge, too. Natalie and Colton are learning at the pace they desire. Natalie has been practicing (and succeeding) with horses, most recently! We know that when we work with energy together, and hold a shared intention, healing just happens.
Engineering and Design
Kyle is a phD mechanical engineer, with experience in designing everything from large-scale additive manufacturing to building hot rods (and, of course, our bus home). He has experience in starting businesses, both with investment and privately funded. He’s got the tools, he knows the programs and he’s got the contacts, to boot! What can he help you get started with?
Construction
Kyle began in his early years building hot rods with his dad, this love extended to other projects as the years went on: machines to test hypotheses in tribology lab (for the study of friction for his phD work); 3D-printers and extruders for a variety of applications (including cars, molds, furniture and theatrical set design); farm infrastructure - a barn, portable animal housing, a greenhouse, heavy-duty fencing; and now the bus and all the systems that entails for a tiny home on wheels (welding, carpentry, insulation, electrical wiring, and on and on and on). And Colton is GREAT at Legos!
