Design Team
You will appreciate our personal touch, our experience and our quiet confidence in guiding you through the entire project. Horticulture and design have been life-long passions for us and we believe planting design is equally important as the structural components of the design.
“The designers at Hidden Lane are Fabulous Listeners! They took the time to really understand our needs and I received honest, professional advice that was right on target.”
We work mostly from referrals, so it’s very important for us to make everything perfect for you!

“A new landscape is an investment in your home, your family and your well-being. Before you invest, investigate. Find your style. Look beyond the neighbor's landscape. Travel to places that inspire and ignite ideas. When you are excited and ready for the garden of your dreams, I will help you discover the perfect solutions. ”

“Driven to create spaces that provide for enjoyable memory making, I incorporate new technologies with traditional graphic techniques to add detail, aspect and scale into an expressive design. My approach is rooted in contextual awareness giving artful form to create destinations across a property, be it a destination for body or for the mind. Inspired by discovery, I am continually immersing myself in new things, places, and experiences to garner new means and methods that can influence social and ecological design alternatives.”
