About Landscaper Derby
I am a landscape designer and developer. I have an engineering background and started my own landscaping business in Derby last year.
I originally come from Leicester and attended maritime university in 2004. After graduating in 2007, I went to the high seas as an engineer for the next 6 years. Due to my marriage, I stopped sailing and started working in my father's landscaping company, learning the tricks of the business. I love how you can combine creativity, outdoor activity, and meeting new people in one job. I have always been a person who loves working with his hands and this job is very rewarding since you can really surprise people and make them fall in love with their garden again.
