A Georgia native, Gabrielle has a passion for the outdoors, sustainable landscape design and a connection between nature and human activities. After graduating from Loganville High School, Gabrielle attended Athens Technical College as a bridge to The University of Georgia's Environmental Design School. At Georgia, Gabrielle was in the Honor Society Phi Sigma Pi and Minored in Disaster Management. She also has a certificate in Sustainability. Gabrielle is a class act who's passion for life and landscape architecture is contagious. We are very blessed and lucky to have her a part of our team.

To quote Gabrielle:

"Having access to green space has always been a priority for me which influences my decision making. There are many landscape designs in cities and at homes, but too many lack a true natural atmosphere. I would like to transform landscape architecture, so that people design for a more symbiotic relationship between humans and nature to allow it to grow where it once stood."
