I started DtE twenty-six years ago, and with the daily support of my amazing staff, I still manage it today. I'm a landscape designer/contractor, writer, Los Angeles native, Cal Berkeley graduate, returned Peace Corps volunteer from Honduras and Izzy's mom. I received my initial training in irrigation, landscape construction, lighting, plant design and soil science from several leading landscaping firms and the Landscape Horticulture department at Merritt College. My first clients called me down-to-earth, so when I needed a company name, I knew that was it...Jesica
