About Me
Originally from Stafford, Virginia, I moved to Louisville Kentucky in 2004 where I have been working with Bramer Brothers Landscaping, a reputable and long-standing landscape design and build firm.
I am a graduate of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) with a Bachelor of Science degree in Horticulture with a concentration in Landscape Design. I have since added to my repertoire a year of Architectural CADD courses. Through this education I have the ability to bring your average landscape to life through design methods including CADD and Board Drafting, as well as through the use of Digital Perspective Photographs.
My professional presentations visually take the design from concept to reality, demonstrating what your dream landscape will look like before you ever break ground.
