LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE, URBAN DESIGN AND PLANNING
Transforming Public Places With Your Community

LEED AP • CERTIFIED WBE, SLEB

Throughout my life, I developed my artistic abilities in many mediums. After two years of art college, I realized that “Art” was too abstract; I needed more structure, purpose and functional requirements to best apply my creative talents.

Through Landscape Architecture, I found my voice, and the canvas got so much larger than I had ever imagined!

Each project will have my personal attention throughout their durations.
