This week I was invited back to my Alma Mater, Utah State to speak with the talented Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning, Residential Landscape Design & Construction, and Horticulture students.
We dove into the real-world aspects of being a designer, from client expectations to the sales process and the invaluable experience you gain outside the classroom. We discussed what it takes to install these designs and how the planning and design element of each landscape needs to be meticulously thought about from a perspective of the installers.
All things I wish I had a better understanding of when I was sitting in those same classrooms becoming a landscape professional myself.
My goal is to build this industry with smart, talented professionals. Your landscape is your way of tying the natural world into your home and everyday life, especially in urban areas.
Looking forward to mine and relationship with and USU PSC department.
Keep on designing and always look for opportunities to learn and grow!
