At 9 years old I began to take interest in the landscaping industry, and soon after became my neighborhood’s go to person for anyone who needed lawn maintenance or landscape enhancements. Then, as a teenager, I realized I enjoyed being employed in this industry so much that I began to work for landscape contractors to broaden my knowledge and improve my skills as a professional landscaper. Since being that 9 year old kid, I have known that this is the career path for me that has since become a passion of me wanting to be the best. Over the years, my experience has included maintenance of high end properties that involves knowledge of ornamentals and turf grass maintenance along with learning identifications. I have also worked installing and repairing irrigation systems, which I consider to be valuable in this industry. Thirdly, I have an abundance of experience with landscape installations including drainage, grading, and the proper procedure in which turf and plant materials should be installed. After graduating college with a BA in Management, I began working at Bland Landscaping which has taught me a variety of skills including: managing and delegating task to crew members while also learning how to deal with conflict amongst co-workers, knowledge of chemicals, and the diseases that these chemicals treat, as well as how to be a leader in order to guide and educate crew members to make sure the job is executed with the best quality.
