  Responsibilities included hiring, managing & building a team, designing, selling, and managing residential landscape projects. I also estimated and designed commercial landscape projects. This was an exciting company to work for because I was given the tools and freedom to create a landscape installation division in a successful commercial lawn mowing company.
