Hailing from the ever-growing (sub)urban sprawl of Toronto, Canada, Kimberley has had her fingers in many pies since childhood – ranging from cartooning, to journalism, to marketing, to architecture and now to starts and fits in the yoga of organic farming. After a bucolic interlude of higher education in Ithaca, NY and receiving her bachelor's in architecture from Cornell University, she went on to soldier through a two-year stint in the concrete jungle of New York, working with two well-known sustainable design firms.

Now living and working as an architect in Auroville, an experimental, "human-scaled" south Indian community – where the cows are gorgeously sacred and sustainability is a conscious way of life (or at least an attempt at it) – she is living out her passion for all things ecologically sound in the hopes that one by one, humankind can go beyond mere lifestyle choices and dive headlong towards full-blown, conscious planetary evolution. (Or at least that's what the organic spirulina box said…)

Her blog on Auroville can be found here.
