Landscape Design & Consulting ServicesLooking to partner with Washington agencies, HOAs, and contractors to meet NPDES requirements through rain garden and bioswale inspection and maintenance, sustainable landscape design, and installation oversight. My focus is on practical, low-maintenance green infrastructure that protects local waterways and reduces flooding. | ||||||||
As a landscape designer, educator, and environmental consultant, I create beautiful, functional outdoor spaces that heal ecosystems and empower people. With over a decade of experience in sustainable design, stormwater management, and climate-resilient plantings, I specialize in native landscapes that support pollinators, manage runoff, and thrive in the Pacific Northwest.
