I believe that landscape design involves collaboration between the homeowner and the designer and the nature of the site. My mission is to address the practical concerns of a site with an aesthetic sensibility to create a landscape that suits you, your lifestyle and your family's needs.

I work with the inside-outside relationship between the house and the garden, enhancing views from windows or providing screening from an undesirable view. I pay attention to the architecture of your house and use plant materials to frame it and hardscaping materials (stone, pavers etc.) to make entryways and terraces functional and inviting.

With my extensive experience and horticultural knowledge, I will design a garden with a combination of plants chosen for their color, texture, structure, and fragrance or for their attraction to birds or butterflies. I will create a garden that you will love, that is ecologically sound with a four-season sequence of bloom, berries and foliage that is appropriate to your property, your lifestyle and to the area in which you live.
