From the time

I can remember,

 

I loved playing in the dirt and picking flowers. (They were really weeds, but who knew?) It was later in life when I enrolled at South Seattle College to study horticulture and landscape design. Several courses later, I dug a hole, buried my corporate hat and started playing in the dirt again!

 

Hands dirty, I opened Alula Boutique Containers, a commercial and residential container design and maintenance company. We specialize in artful living displays. Naming my company after the Hawaiian Ōlulu or Alula plant was a natural choice. Found on the steep sea cliffs of Kaua’i, it's unique, whimsical, and pretty in an unconventional way. Just like my designs.
