With our busy and sometimes stressful lives, having spaces that help us feel nourished and centered are vital to our well being. Often people know they want areas that provide this but feel overwhelmed with all the planning and detail it takes to actually get there. Most people want to do the right thing environmentally but don't know what exactly that means or where to start. 

 

That's where I come in. I guide clients to connect with their values and vision while using sound ecological principles to carry those out. I combine my design skills, plant knowledge,  and energetic connection to the land for a unique blend of intuitive landscape design. We work together to create a design that works both for clients and the Earth. 

​

In addition to my design and plant education, I have spent many years developing my spiritual practices and I bring this into my work. I also had the opportunity to live in Australia for three years where I studied connecting with the land, trees, plants, waterways and spirit of place. Now I connect with my client’s needs as well as the energies and spirits of the land we are working with to create best possible solutions. I consider the Earth an important part of our partnership. In this way we are able to create connected spaces filled with intention as well as beauty. 

​

I currently live in San Diego, California but work with clients around the world. My time in Australia brings an international perspective to my work that I am grateful to be able to share. 

​

I work with all sizes of projects although a few of my specialties are sanctuary spaces, healing gardens, retreat centers and small spaces. We'll prioritize details and determine the plants, materials and placement that works best for you and your goals. The 3D program I use gives clients the ability to visualize exactly how the area will look so they can feel more comfortable in their decisions. All these details are combined into a set of documents so you'll be ready to build whether that's tomorrow or years away.
