History
My passion for gardening started in high school when our neighbor left part of their field unplanted so our family could plant a garden. I have enjoyed learning about and caring for plants ever since. I obtained a Bachelor of Science from Rochester College in 2002 and worked in corporate until I realized what I was doing was just a job that I had no passion for. I am now a student at Oakland Community College, earning an Associate's degree Landscape Horticulture and Landscape Design. I have a love for perennials, annuals, shrubs, and recently, trees. I have been the owner of Green Escapes Gardening LLC since 2010 and enjoy working with homeowners and business to obtain the landscape they desire. The beauty in nature, sculpture, colors, sound, scents, and textures are important as well as the science aspect of putting proper plant material in the right growing conditions.
Specialties
My business specialties are gardening, landscape design, installation, and maintenance.
