After studying at St. John’s College here in Santa Fe, I stayed. The rigor and dedication of being a St. John’s student was to become, for me, the foundation for  my landscape design: thoughtful, precise and aesthetically appealing. It also inspired the way I put the business together, extraordinary care, communication, service and installation processes.  

I was born and raised in the Caribbean, in Curacao. I speak Dutch, Papiamentu, Spanish, English, French, as well as a little Portuguese. My parents were always taking the family traveling to experience culture, food, art, history, and other countries.  From a very young age, they took us traveling. I spent weekends at interesting spots around the island and took trips to the U.S. during the summers.
