I worked as a carpenter and stonemason, and installed many gardens before attending medical school and practicing alternative medicine for 20 years.  Now I balance my life between two professions – homeopathic consultation and landscape design – integrating these two deep currents of my life.

I’ve been a homeopathic practitioner since 1983.  I’ve taught and written about homeopathy; led local and national homeopathic organizations; and conducted and published research in homeopathy.  In 2003 I closed the medical portion of my practice, continued to practice as a homeopathic consultant, and added a complementary career in landscape design.

I am a graduate George Washington University School of Medicine (1979), of the Brown University Family Medicine Residency (1982), and of the Landscape Institute, a program at Harvard/Arnold Arboretum’s Landscape Institute (2005). I am certified in organic landcare by NOFA-OLC, the Northeast Organic Farming Association, Organic Land Care program, since 2005.
