Greetings! Landscape has been my passion for over 10 years taking me from NY to PA and now very soon into DE! This means my home USDA zones range from 4-9, a great base of plants for a majority of the USA. I come from the dirt, meaning I installed everything you see in a landscape including water features, drainage, hardscape, giant trees, low voltage lighting and even fencing. The reason this makes me a better designer is that I understand the cost and the labor of the items I use in my design, helping you the client stick to a budget. I create 2D plans that can be sent out to local professionals for bidding and installation and even permitting. I have successfully helped clients obtain permits for renovations and building permits. I crate 3D renderings complete with videos and snapshots, including night time views for lighting and fire effects. My plans come with materials list with measurements, a plant list with replacement suggestions and detailed instructions. I offer phase planning for larger projects and consultation for the DIY homeowner looking to install landscape without hiring a company. I am always open to messaging and Zoom to answer questions or clarify pricing.

I started in construction over a decade ago with a joint custom Home Builder & Insulation Installation in Putnam, NY. This opportunity allowed me to work on building some of the most impressive and expensive homes in the country throughout the lower Hudson Valley. Before I parted ways 6 years later as a crew lead, I assisted in expanding the insulation division from 2 employees up to 15 workers with 3 installation crews. We did this by relentlessly focusing on providing the highest quality work possible to our customers and fostering a company wide theme of accountability to uphold these high standards. This ethos was recognized by NYS and EnergyStar which awarded us the #1 company in our field in the Tri-State area Four out of the Six years I was there by verified 3rd party energy audits. My desire for personal growth and embodying a belief that delivering the highest quality results to each and every client is paramount led me to where I am today. Since I left my previous position I've worked as an Estimator & Project Manager for High-End custom residential and commercial construction projects ranging from simple 1-room remodels to multi-million dollar new builds. Whether you need an owners rep to be your eyes & ears, design consultation for budget impact, preliminary estimating & project budgets, value engineering suggestions, verification of existing estimates, home lighting designs, billing assistance for your project, or the full gambit of Construction Management or Project Management services; I'm here to help with it all. Experienced in the following programs: Procore Management Software (Desktop & Mobile) Microsoft Excel Microsoft Teams Quickbooks Fusion360 3D modeling software Some Services Offered PM your project Lighting Design Billing Assistance Takeoffs & Estimating Owners Representative Training on Procore PM Software Creating Custom Budgets & Templates Value Engineering & Design Assistance
