As a registered landscape architect with a background in public policy & management, my work focuses on Community and Economic Development and the issues that affect communities looking to stabilize or grow. I primarily work to engage individuals to take ownership of their surrounding environment and implement creative, sustainable solutions that can lead to larger changes and with partners at the policy and decision-making level to ensure pathways for change exist. For the last decade, I have primarily focused on vacancy and blight issues on the ground.
