Adesina grew up in San Francisco. Her very first job was as a “secretary” while her mom was principle. Since then she’s honed her administrative and managerial skills through 15 years in leadership at Whole Foods Market and running her own small business since 2016.

Adesina is A UCSB sociology graduate and she loves learning new skills. Her diverse background includes certifications in Nutrition Education and Composting Education, reflecting her commitment to holistic knowledge.

Although she grew up a city kid, her family got out into nature frequently. Some of her favorite memories are of sitting under giant redwoods, camping in the sierras and watching the waves rolling at Fort Funston. Adesina moved to Oregon in 2001 and finally settled in Portland in 2015. She lives in SW Portland with her husband and daughter.
