“Finding out where diverse viewpoints intersect and giving people back an idea they can all agree on, that gets me energized. But it’s the long-term effects that really resonate. Designs based on consensus can enhance community stability, reduce crime, and get people invested in a shared and sustainable future.”
Favorite plant: Cercis canadensis f. alba. White Redbuds are similar to typical Redbuds with their unique heart shaped leaves but have a white pea-like flowers instead of pink. Overall the color white to me has a sense of being classic and clean as accents in designs. I am slightly turned off by the color pink due to my over obsession to the typical girly color as a child. With this tree I also enjoy seeing their leaves turn from a green to an attractive yellow in fall. In conclusion, I love this tree for its leaf shape, flower color and its fall color.
