Kristen Rodriguez-Salas
Hydroponic Support Team Training Specialist
As part of the NY Sun Works Grow Support Team (GST), Kristen Rodriguez-Salas blends her passion for education and urban farming. In 2013, Kristen spent the summer working on a farm in Vermont, which inspired her to look for urban agricultural opportunities when she returned to NY. She apprenticed at Brooklyn Grange, an innovative urban farming enterprise, and pursued the Horticulture Certificate program at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden for a deeper understanding of plant science. She now focuses on supporting her fellow GST team members and managing logistics as the team expands.
