ABOUT ROBIN
I am a 5th generation Oregonian and grew up in a small town just north of Portland, along the Columbia River. As a child, I was surrounded by nature - from mountains and forests to open prairie, wetlands, creeks and rivers - which nurtured a very early appreciation and love of the natural landscape, horticulture, architecture and art.
I received my Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree in 1999 from the University of Oregon School of Architecture and Allied Arts.
Over the years, I have designed and managed many projects in the United States and abroad in Ireland - from private residential gardens to commercial and mixed-use developments, rooftop gardens, parks, resorts, and nature playgrounds.
I have worked with and designed for:
Huntington & Kiest Landscape Architects Portland, Oregon
Koch Landscape Architecture Portland, Oregon
Marianne Zarkin Landscape Architects Portland, Oregon
Bothwell Landscape Studio Portland, Oregon
Learning Landscapes Design Portland, Oregon
Cunnane Stratton Reynolds Cork and Dublin, Ireland
Scott Lewis Landscape Architect San Francisco, California
Cliff Lowe Associates San Francisco, California
Samuel H. Williamson Associates Portland, Oregon
Murase Associates Portland, Oregon
My emphasis is in custom residential garden design, natural symmetry and vernacular architecture. I focus on fine landscape detailing, beautiful plant combinations and a clever, articulated and highly functional approach to design. I aim to provide a beautiful, enriching and intimate landscape experience for all of my clients.
I am a licensed Landscape Architect in the State of Oregon.
