PROJECTS

Oversaw the care and evolution of a 29-acre estate, including seven acres of French-inspired gardens set within a Mediterranean plant palette. Led a team of five and directed the restoration of 10 acres of native chaparral and oak woodland. Introduced smart irrigation and water-conscious strategies to support long-term sustainability without compromising the beauty of the landscape.

Managed the full scope of a large working landscape, from design and installation to ongoing care. Led major landscape projects while also overseeing budgets and long-term planning. In the greenhouse, cultivated a wide range of plant material and managed day-to-day operations, bringing a deep understanding of how landscapes are grown, not just designed.

Directed the development and care of expansive native gardens and woodland landscapes, leading a crew of seven. Sourced and installed large specimen trees, shaping a landscape rooted in regional ecology and designed to thrive over time.

Worked within one of the country’s most respected horticultural institutions, focusing on perennial production and the creation of both formal and naturalistic gardens. Contributed to the design and preparation of plant material for the Philadelphia Flower Show, where craftsmanship and presentation are held to the highest standard.
