Miscellaneous--

Born and raised in Oregon.  Grew up hiking native NW forests, canoeing our rivers, which gave me a deep appreciation for Oregon's landscape.  Spent summers on the Lewis & Clark College campus (father a professor there), developing a love for the Arts & Crafts movement in architecture and landscape design. 

Interests: garden tours, garden travel, native plants ("plant nerd"), art, photography, hiking, reading, family time.

Family: married 27 years, son and daughter in college.  We garden on a sunny, quarter-acre lot in Columbia County, OR, where you'll see us out in the yard with our trowels and wheelbarrow and always our sweet, fetch-crazed dog.
