About Lily

After relocating from New York City in 2021, Lily and her family quickly became regular visitors to Elawa Farm, enjoying everything from the bustling garden markets to the CSA program and children's activities. Inspired by the farm’s commitment to sustainability and community, Lily joined the team in the fall of 2024.

With over 15 years of experience in communications, marketing, and design, Lily is passionate about supporting Elawa Farm’s mission to foster environmental stewardship, education, and community engagement.

In addition to her work at the farm, Lily is the owner of Aloe Light Studio, a small photography studio that specializes in capturing authentic family portraits. Through her work, she highlights the simple, yet profound moments that make up our everyday lives. Lily also continues to explore personal creative projects outside of her professional work.

Before moving to the area, Lily was actively involved in New York City’s vibrant art scene. She managed a fine art photography studio and worked as a designer and archivist at a prominent art gallery, where she created artist portfolios, print materials, and managed promotional efforts for exhibitions and events.
