She has worked with the firm for eight years, and loves being on a team with a transformational approach to site development. She appreciates the team’s comprehensive knowledge of local ordinances, code requirements, and regulations that allow her to provide the best value and design, tailored to each client’s needs.
As a landscape architect, Debra takes a site beyond pure function, focusing on land planning and the overall aesthetic approach to enhance visual design and meaning. Some of her projects include features including plazas, water features, pools, outdoor kitchens, dog parks, arbors, gardens, and other types of site furnishings. She is inspired by the history of landscape architecture, beginning with the design of Central Park in the 1850s. At ODG, Debra loves getting to see each project come to fruition.
Debra grew up with an army parent and moved often—she remembers living in three different houses on the same street due to her family’s frequent relocations.
She graduated from Penn State with a B.S. in landscape architecture.
