Joanne joined Parklane in 2011 as a Landscape Designer. As she grew up in a family landscape construction and garden centre business in Ireland, she has an appreciation for the family business dynamic . Joanne completed a degree in Property Economics, Masters in Landscape Architecture and a certificate in Ecology in Ireland and has brought this knowledge and experience to Parklane.
Joanne worked in Ireland as a Landscape Designer and completed both residential and commercial landscape plans for local authorities, commercial and private clients. She worked with Monaghan County Council as a wetland monitor, assessing the changes in water quality and vegetation in an Integrated Constructed Wetland.
Working as a designer Joanne approaches all designs with an open mind considering the practical use of the space blending function and form into the designs with the consideration of the clients requirements and budget. She considers the use of plants as an important aesthetic to a garden and encourages the use of native and naturalised planting schemes to ensure a balance with the ecology and environment of the garden.
