As an artist, and as an East Bay native I feel that my appreciation of the architectural styles and ways of life unique to the San Francisco Bay Area informs my perspective. I have a love for art and design of all sorts, a strong respect for nature, and a passion for animals and plants. I can work with a variety of materials and have an interest in recycling, and re-use. I have been gardening and making art for much of my life; professionally I have been working as a gardener and designer for 16 years. It is with this background and these strengths, and my desire to provide not only: beauty, contemplation, fun, and laughter, but an eco-friendly habitat that will attract birds, and bees that I will work with you to achieve a space that is wonderful and uniquely yours. Through a series of meetings and conversations I will learn your personal style, understand your particular requirements, and assess the conditions in your garden. With all of these pieces in mind I will design for you a garden that will reflect and celebrate you and your home’s unique beauty.
