About Me

My husband and I live on the South Shore of Long Island, New York. I am a full time teacher of 32 years and have my own landscape design business. As well as my love of teaching, my love of spending time in the garden has been and will always be a part of me.  I started off by designing the gardens of friends and neighbors. With the encouragement of friends I decided to further my education in horticulture and design and became a landscape designer.  I started up my business, which grew by word of mouth and became what it is today.

After seventeen years in the field I continue to stay current in horticulture through attending professional conferences, reading horticultural publications, membership in professional organizations and my continued involvement in the horticultural industry.  With shovel in hand since the age of five my love for creating continues to grow.

When not teaching or designing I can be found in my own gardens planning the next addition...a never-ending process. "A garden is an extension of its owner...a thing of beauty that constantly changes and can be enjoyed forever..."
