Story

Beauty, Creativity, Function

My landscape designs are first and foremost, beautiful. Your outdoor area isn't just a "yard", it's an outdoor living space, an extension of your home, a personal retreat, and a place to share with family and friends. I pay attention to how you plan to use your property and offer creative solutions unique to Northern California — native plantings for seasonal drought, permeable surfaces to reduce runoff, defensible space for fire safety, and deer-resistant landscapes. No matter how you plan to use your outdoor area — entertaining guests "in" the outdoor kitchen, doing laps in an infinity swimming pool, or simply relaxing under a vine-covered pergola, I can help you realize your landscaping dreams.

During the design process you'll see visual representations of your project so you know just what to expect. Beautifully-detailed and easy-to-understand hand graphics and precision AutoCAD (computer graphics) drawings are created for every project.

From concept inception to post-construction maintenance observation I support and assist clients through the life of the project. My business model is to offer a very personal and interactive partnership with my clients. I also integrate my expertise with other design and construction professionals to coordinate and manage large, complex and lengthy projects.
