Meet Neti



Natalie, "Neti" is a 28-year-old Kemetic basu, houseplant stylist, environmental public health practitioner and devoted cat mom from Baltimore, Maryland.

Neti received her MPH in 2023, her yoga certification in 2021 and has been leading plant classes since 2022. Neti specializes in working with tropical indoor houseplants.

She first became immersed in houseplants, gardening and the outdoors at a young age thanks to her father, uncle and grandfather. Gardening and hiking trips were a regular part of her everyday life.

In college, she helped revitalized her university’s environmental science program and capitalized on this passion.

By planning and assisting in the development of several climate change and rock gardens, reigniting then helping oversee her school’s greenhouse, hosting several greenhouse fundraisers, and co-leading the school’s first garden club, Neti’s green thumb blossomed.

Today, Neti's passion continues as she operates her own plant shop on the seven (7) principles of Ma'at. She believes utilizing these principles cultivates a long term balanced quality of life for both humans and our environment. 

She believes that owning and caring for houseplants is one way to begin to prioritize our environment in our daily decision making and lifestyles.

It is Neti’s hope this socio-cultural adaptation will increase our environment's prioritization and thus, the climate agenda.
