Activities/Interests
I have been
fascinated by plants and the growing of plants from when I was
little. I have always known that I wanted to live my life in the
green industry, and here I am! Needless to say, gardening is very
much a passion of mine, but I also enjoy outdoor activities like
cycling, camping and angling. Computing is also an interest of
mine and I have been a keen aquarist / aquascaper for many years.
Other
Skills
I have the
ability to get along easily with a variety of people, making me
an excellent team player. An underlying artistic intuition allows
me to combine my technical knowledge of plants well with their
aesthetic use, helping InSite create landscapes that are truly
unique and captivating. I have highly developed organizational
skills and value client service very highly. I’m fully computer
literate and proficient in AutoCAD, MS Office and Adobe Photoshop.
