Hello, I’m Shanfan.
I use design, writing, and systems thinking to help people make sense of complex ideas — especially those rooted in how we live, grow, and care for each other.
My work often takes the form of stories, reports, or visual tools that bring clarity to tangled information. I work with small teams concerned with urban ecology, community resilience, and sustainable food systems to shape thoughtful and grounded communications.
In addition, I also help groups think clearly together.
When there are many voices, needs, or moving parts, I design collaborative sessions that support shared decision-making and help communities move forward with confidence and care. Whether we’re imagining a public space, building a local initiative, or just trying to untangle ideas that matter, I bring a mix of structure, empathy, and steady presence to the process.
🌱 How I Can Support You
You care deeply about the land, the city, and the systems that shape how people live, grow, and connect — but turning that care into something tangible, organized, and shareable can feel overwhelming.
Whether you're mapping out a community garden, developing a public-facing report on food systems, coordinating a local program, or gathering partners for a new initiative, I can help bring clarity and structure to the process. I offer support in writing, visual design, and story-shaping — and I also help guide the work behind the scenes, through light project management and thoughtful group sessions that keep everyone aligned.
I bring both creative and organizational tools to the table, and I meet each project where it is. Together, we can make your ideas not only legible, but lasting — grounded in purpose and ready to grow.

Winter
trees stand bare.
What once hid behind green and bloom
now reveals its structure—
every branch a decision,
every angle a story.
Birds thread through the open sky.
Clarity arrives.
