Introduction

I am very attentive to my clients' needs and their satisfaction is my number one priority. I guide my clients through every step of the design process and I help them to adapt their ideas to the existing conditions. I use my knowledge and creativity to offer budget friendly options that can reduce the cost of the work without sacrificing its quality. My goal is to find the design solution that works the best for my clients. I like to combine creative, artistic work with maintenance, planting, weeding and pruning. I use my knowledge of landscape design programs to create my projects on the computer and then follow through with the execution of them. I enjoy the process of transforming a bare or weed-covered yard into a beautiful garden.

Q&A

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have a certificate in Landscape Design from NY Botanical Garden, where I worked as a volunteer for several years. My other experience includes working with several private properties in the NY and RI, as well as designing a garden for the monastery in Russia.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I found my passion in gardening and landscape design when I moved into a brand new house and started transforming my bare surroundings into my dream back yard. I soon realized that I needed professional knowledge to make this dream come true, so I signed up for the NY Botanical Garden's program. There, I not only studied, but volunteered in their numerous gardens and in a few years I received my certificate in landscape design. My passion has lead me to a wonderful career that I hope to pursue for the rest of my life.
