FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes! I am very active in the Association of Professional Landscape Designers (APLD). I travel every year to their national conference and attend their quarterly webinars. I also attend numerous local events on plant design, sustainable environmental practices, and new products and practices within my field.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have always loved being outside and connecting with nature. I used to garden with my grandfather in his huge vegetable garden. When I was in college, I started out in Architecture and immediately was drawn to the landscape. I knew right away after a few years under my belt that I wanted to work with people, plants, and the outdoors so it was a no brainer!
- What types of customers have you worked with?
Most commonly, I start with a master plan for a residential client's property. From there, we find the areas that are their first priority and work from the plan to phase out the overall design into manageable pieces. Whether its a pool, patio, other outdoor space, or planting, we work together to create their dream landscape specifically designed with their needs and aspirations in mind.
