Based on Long Island’s glacial moraine in Brooklyn, my practice centers around connecting people, plants, place, and soil. I design for climate adaptation and ecosystem diversity, celebrating the abundance and complexity of the living world. 

Face it, plants are amazing. They literally do everything to sustain us  - they eat sunlight and in turn create oxygen, cycle water, feed us, build habitats, and offer us endless beauty. That’s why I see plants as active agents that have the potential to shape our spaces and improve the wellbeing of both the planet and ourselves.
