About me: I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Design from the University of Arizona in 2009, and soon after followed a calling to work more closely with the natural world. That path led me to Hawai‘i, where I immersed myself in a botanical paradise and trained alongside experienced farmers and gardeners, gaining hands-on knowledge of diverse plant ecosystems. My journey continued in San Francisco and throughout the greater Bay Area, where I collaborated with some of the region’s most talented garden professionals. There, I refined my approach to garden design—blending artistry with environmental stewardship, deep botanical expertise, and a thoughtful understanding of each client’s unique vision. Now living in Oakland, I am inspired by the beauty and resilience of the climate and dedicated to creating landscapes that honor and thrive within this extraordinary environment. I believe every garden is a living work of art—an extension of the people who inhabit it. Whether you’re dreaming of a serene retreat, a vibrant habitat, or a beautifully curated outdoor space, I bring meticulous attention to detail, creativity, and genuine care to every project. If you value craftsmanship, sustainability, and a designer who listens as carefully as they create, I would love to help bring your garden to life. Let’s start the conversation.
