My passion for Landscape Design and Landscape Architecture started when I was in High School and found out that I could go to school to become a Landscape Architect. Now as an emerging professional in this industry I not only grasp any opportunity to further my craft and gain new knowledge but I also try to make it so that others not in this industry can learn about what it means to be a Landscape Designer/Architect and how wonderful and gratifying it is.
My goals are to always ensure that I have a hand in bringing the joy of green spaces and beautiful, useful, environmentally conscious landscapes into the world.
Apart from being an enthusiastic professional in my field I am also reliable, detail oriented, ready and willing to assist, neat and organized with my files, time and other materials, adaptable and an overall people person.
