Company Role

Lawn Care Project Manager

Experience and Credentials

I have a Horticulture degree from Hawkeye Community College and have worked in the landscape and lawn care industry since 2003.  I have worked for a sod farm, irrigation company, and multiple landscape and lawn care companies in the Cedar Valley.  Each company did things a little differently and I’ve taken what I’ve learned through the years and applied it to my job today.

What have you learned from your job that you’d like everyone to know

All lawns and properties are NOT created equal.  Plants that worked in your old landscape or your neighbor’s landscape, may not work in your current landscape.  The amount of sunlight and soil type both play a big role in what plants, trees, and shrubs, will work in your landscape.   A good landscape company helps you figure out what works best in your unique situation.

Best thing about your job

Employees are given the freedom to spread their wings and take themselves as far as they can go.

Hobbies

I enjoy helping with my kids’ activities and spending time as a family.  If I get some “me” time, it’s usually spent hunting or fishing.
