SGMA Simplified

Deep Roots in Agriculture.
A Clear Path Through SGMA
I grew up in the heart of California agriculture, where water isn’t just a resource—it’s the foundation of everything. My husband was a fifth-generation farmer, and I still live on our home ranch, where I see firsthand how SGMA is reshaping the future of farming.
This isn’t just policy—it’s personal.
Like so many in agriculture, my future depends on the water decisions being made today about SGMA and the Tulare Lake Subbasin.
SGMA Impacts Every Farm—Big or Small.
SGMA isn’t just a challenge for large operations. Whether you farm 50 acres or 5,000, these policies will shape your future. We’re all in this together. But most farmers don’t have time to sit through hours of water board meetings, translate policy jargon, or figure out what’s coming next.
That’s where I come in.
With deep expertise in the Tulare Lake Subbasin, I help farm bureaus, growers, and ag businesses navigate SGMA with clarity and strategy.
Bridging the Gap Between Policy and Practical Action.
SGMA and water policy don’t exist in a vacuum—they impact families, businesses, and entire agricultural communities. But too often, these policies are complex, frustrating, and unclear.
I ensure that farm bureaus, growers, and agricultural businesses receive the necessary information without wading through legal documents or attending another meeting.
How I Help:
-
SGMA Reports & Meeting Representation – I attend key water meetings and deliver straightforward, no-fluff updates so you know exactly what matters.
-
SGMA Education & Strategy – Whether it’s one-on-one consulting, workshops, or training materials, I make compliance and policy decisions clearer.
-
Stakeholder Engagement & Communication – I help agricultural leaders stay ahead of SGMA, navigate industry shifts, and advocate for solutions that work.
Why This Work Matters.
Agriculture is at a crossroads. The way we navigate SGMA today will define the future of farming.
But farmers, irrigation districts, and farm bureaus don’t need another policy report.
-
They need a trusted expert.
-
They need real answers.
-
They need someone who makes SGMA make sense.
That’s what I do. I bring years of experience in policy communication, crisis navigation, and strategic planning—helping farms and organizations not just react to SGMA, but prepare for what’s ahead.
