Born in Big Sur, California, Estrella spent her formative years  immersed in communal living. Decades later, after living throughout the American West, she is thrilled to be back in Northern California with her twelve-year old son for another round of living in community at Woolman. She went to high school in a tiny wheat-farming town in Northern Idaho then moved to Albuquerque to be part of the Latin American Studies program at the University of New Mexico. She received her Bachelor's Degree in Literature from Lewis & Clark State College. Her loves: Literary non-fiction—especially travel epistles, documentary film and radio, hiking, trail running, snow-boarding, car camping, road trips, swimming holes, hot springs, great wine, great food and live music.

Why I came to Woolman: To surround my son with healthy role models, kindness and compassion, sustainability, and beautiful surroundings!

My favorite spot on campus: Ithica

My favorite book: My Family and Other Animals, Gerald Durrell
