I am a landscape designer and advocate for native plant-focused and sustainable landscaping, but in the past I have worked in costume production and clothing alteration. I taught myself to hand-tailor, draft patterns, and do various other tricks with needle and thread. I have a masters degree in French, which I taught for several years while in grad school.
