Dave has been designing Twin Cities’ landscapes for several decades. He received a B.S. in Biological Sciences from the University of Iowa and was schooled for two more years in Landscape Architecture at Iowa State University. Dave has received top design awards for residential landscaping from the Minnesota Nursery and Landscape Association, and he maintains his Certified Nursery and Landscape Professional status within the industry. Dave loves all aspects of outdoor design, from the complex structural to the intricate plant layout. Keeping educated on the latest plants and hardscape materials has always been very important to him. He encourages his clients to impart their ideas onto the site, and then helps refine those ideas so they can be turned into very enjoyable outdoor spaces. Dave lives in Minnetonka with his wife. They have a grown son. Dave’s pastimes include gardening, traveling, birding, and shooting nature (with a digital camera).
