Being an educator at heart, Christopher started their Instagram account (@plantkween) in 2016 as a way to share the many lessons, lush adventures and simple joys that come with being a plant parent. Their social media presence has been rooted in a journey of self-care, joy-sharing and community building all through the wonders of those green little creatures we call plants. As a Black, queer, non-binary femme, Christopher enjoys exploring creative and accessible ways to use plants as a vehicle to incite further conversations centering Black joy and reslience, LGBTQ+ advocacy, and the need to increase the visibility, representation and empowerment of QTPOC (Queer and Trans People of Color) in the lush world of horticulture.
