Anna Crombie
Landscape Designer
Anna returned to Curbz after obtaining her Landscape Design Certificate from Ryerson University. She worked for us three years ago as a landscaper and her hands-on experience is a great asset in her new role as Landscape Designer.
Anna also worked for 5 years in the field of golf course maintenance and horticulture, followed by a half year working in a Landscape Architecture firm on large scale industrial and sub division projects. Her decision to return to residential design-build was spurred by a passion for creating usable spaces and working directly with clients to produce quality landscapes.
Anna has strong client service skills complimented by an eye for detail. She spends her working days drafting plans and designs, recommending plant material and managing client queries regarding design.
After hours Anna is an avid four-season camper and studier of native plants. She’s also loves to cook.
When asked what she thinks is the best part of her job, Anna says “its creating beautiful outdoor spaces”.
