ABOUT ME
Plant enthusiast. Insatiably curious. Stickler for the details.
​
I came to landscape design as a second (or third...) career. International affairs and development were my first professional passions, taking me from Washington, D.C., to the Democratic Republic of the Congo managing aid programs for a USAID contractor. I subsequently relocated to San Francisco where I worked for several years at Gap and PG&E.
​
In 2017, I left the corporate world in pursuit of something more creative — a career that combined my love for plants and design. My desire for a change led me to spend three wonderful and transformative years as a student of Landscape Architecture at the Merritt College Horticulture Department. In 2019, I launched this business and have since had the pleasure of designing landscapes for clients in Lamorinda and the surrounding area.

ABOUT MY SERVICES
My designs reflect that I am a plant person at heart. I like to use primarily low-water, climate-appropriate plants, local materials where possible and love the challenge of designing to meet a client's specific needs.
My objective with every project is to translate a client's needs into a personalized design solution that inspires and connects the client to their landscape in ways they will enjoy for years to come.
I offer a variety of landscape design services: ​​
-
Full-service landscape design plans (planting, hardscape, lighting)
-
Hourly consultation
-
Planting design plans
