I am a Washington State licensed Landscape Architect and owner of Timber Drift, a design led landscape practice focused on custom residential outdoor environments that feel intentional to the home and site. My work centers on translating complex site conditions such as grading, drainage, circulation, and material systems into clear, executable plans that contractors can actually build. I approach each project holistically, using topography, views, and natural constraints to shape spaces that are both functional and refined. A key part of my work is integrating fire resilient landscape strategies into the design from the start. This includes defensible space planning, thoughtful plant selection, and durable material choices that support long term performance without compromising aesthetics. As the owner of a design build firm, I bring a practical understanding of construction to every project. I understand where designs tend to break down in the field and work to resolve those issues early, saving time, cost, and frustration during installation. I collaborate with homeowners, builders, and design teams to develop concept plans, site layouts, and contractor ready drawings that support a smooth transition from design into construction. Whether you need a high level master plan or a more developed set for pricing and build, I focus on delivering work that is clear, intentional, and grounded in real world execution. If you are looking for a design partner who can think through both the vision and how it comes together on site, I would be glad to connect. Services include: - Concept and master planning for residential landscapes - Site planning with grading and drainage strategies - Fire resilient landscape design and defensible space planning - Outdoor living design including patios, stairs, retaining walls, and circulation - Planting design with climate appropriate and low maintenance strategies - Design collaboration with builders, architects, and homeowners

When I say delivered by Monday - I actually mean it! Bachelor's degree in architectural design, and 20 years in architectural visualization, working with architects and developers on projects where the visuals need to close deals, win investors, or sell projects before the ground breaks. I turn concept ideas into fully developed visual presentations. When the deadline is tight, I know how to prioritize and optimize the pipeline, without sacrificing quality or the details that matter. If you need a quick and easy render, city permits, or a simple floor plan, I'm probably not your guy. I work best on complex, high-budget projects: luxury residential, mixed-use developments, investor decks, pre-sale campaigns. frameviz dot com SketchUp + Enscape / Twinmotion /D5 3DMax + Vray or Corona, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Premiere for post-production.
