The past decade has been one of meaningful growth—both in the gardens I tend and in the relationships I’ve built through my work.
Since 2016, I’ve had the privilege of designing, restoring, and managing fine gardens across New York City, the Hudson Valley, and Connecticut. My practice has remained rooted in thoughtful, hands-on care and a deep respect for each site’s unique character and potential.
A highlight of this period was traveling to Holland to visit our fourth-generation bulb growers. Their legacy and expertise continue to inform my seasonal plantings and reinforce the value of working with integrity and intention.
Throughout these years, I’ve planted thousands of perennials and trees, educated clients on sustainable garden care, and collaborated with skilled craftspeople and laborers who share a commitment to quality.
My work is about more than planting—it’s about nurturing lasting gardens and lasting connections. I look forward to continuing this work with clarity, passion, and purpose.
