About the Owner
Amy J. Steidlmayer has been designing landscapes since 1997. She holds a Bachelors degree in Interior Design from University of Arizona, a Masters in Architecture from Illinois Institute of Technology, and was a practicing landscape architect for 15 years. Formerly employed as a designer at one of Albuquerque’s largest landscape design/build firms, Amy saw a need for a landscape design company that could provide state-of-the art plans while still offering hands-on customer service. As such, her approach emphasizes that the customer is an integral part of the “design,” and her plans are characterized by coordinated effort between herself and her clients.
