Hello, I’m Cate. I’m a community developer and environmental educator living in Mi’kma’ki (Nova Scotia, Canada). Along with my spouse and child, I live at Treehouse Village Ecohousing. This cohousing community has been our long-time dream and it was incredibly fulfilling to dedicate 6 years to creating this village. TVE has had a sociocratic governance system since its inception, and it has been a rich learning ground for me to build my skills in shared governance. Through my membership with SoFA, I am looking forward to experiencing sociocracy in other contexts and to learn alongside other practitioners. I am currently discerning what my next work will be.
