Why did you become involved in your profession or industry?:
Variety is the spice of life. I have always enjoyed drawing and designing "what could be" and rarely run dry of an alternative idea for a challenge at hand. Landscape Architecture in its broadest sense is a great career fit for me because the profession participates and leads in the planning, design or management of virtually everything living or built on the planet that is not a building; but it does include collaborative design with buildings. There is no limit of possibilities to be concerned with.
