Growing up on two acres, I developed a deep love for nature through horseback riding, helping my parents around the property, and serving as a Junior Leader in my local 4-H club.
After being unexpectedly laid off in May 2022, I redirected my energy into researching gardening techniques tailored to the unique climate of the Treasure Valley.
By July of that year, I had gained essential knowledge in soil amendment, garden planning, seasonal maintenance, and pruning techniques specific to our 6b/7a growing zone. This journey led to the creation of Treasure Valley Garden Guru.
Between 2024 and 2025, I was also part of an all-women gardening crew, where I continued to expand my gardening knowledge through hands-on training and real-world experience working in a variety of residential landscapes.
Over the past four years, I’ve helped numerous clients plan, prepare, plant, and maintain their home gardens.
My work is rooted in helping others feel confident in their gardens and connected to the spaces they grow in.
