Summary

With thirty years of experience, I have and will continue to exhibit a cooperative attitude and promote a professional image for myself and the design industry. I aim to further this attitude by venturing beyond the landscape design/build industry to share my abilities with a broader audience and learn and apply new skills along the way.
