Landscape Technologist

Summary

I recently completed my Diploma in Landscape technology at the Tshwane university of technology. I measured in landscape design, landscape construction, and plant studies. I am looking forward to work with a company that will help me grow in the horticulture and landscape field. I am open to utilize my skills in my field, where I will grow and contribute to my career and my country as a landscape designer. I want to spread more knowledge about the green industry especially in small communities. I am open to explore opportunities outside my field of study, where I will discover new passions and use my skills to navigate new challenges and interests.
