Interview with ShoutOutLA - "Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We're big fans and we'd love for our community to learn more about your work. My career has been an evolution, and what's guided me most is treating landscape design as an art form. I've always considered myself an artist first - my medium just happens to be plants. That perspective sets me apart: I don't simply think about where to place trees or shrubs, but how to create living, sculptural environments that merge art, architecture, and nature. Through my company, The Living Canvas, I've had the privilege of creating gardens and estates that are not only beautiful but also deeply felt. When I step into a property, I approach it almost with a sixth sense - attuned to its energy, its flow, and the ways symbols of abundance and harmony can be expressed through design. For centuries, gardens have carried meaning beyond their physical form, and I try to bring that into my work. By combining living plant material with objects of history and purpose, I create spaces that allow people to reconnect with nature — and, in turn, with themselves. What I want the world to know about me and my story is that design can be transformative. A thoughtfully created garden isn't just a backdrop — it's a living, breathing space that carries energy, meaning, and beauty. That's the heart of The Living Canvas: to create environments that resonate deeply and bring people closer to the natural world and to themselves." Thank you for your trust and stewardship and the opportunity to share with you about what I love to do.
