At Rost Superior Irrigation, I have had the privilege of pursuing all of these passions in my role as Division Manager, and the benefit of using my experience to design and install efficient lighting, fencing, and irrigation systems for our clients across Missouri.

Bio

I have always enjoyed being outdoors. So, when I started college at MU I decided to take a job working for their landscape division. After a few months of working with and learning about plants, it inspired me to change my degree. I decided to major in Plant Sciences at the University of Missouri and emphasize in Landscape Design and Turfgrass Management. Before I graduated, I knew Rost Inc, was where I wanted to be. I knew they had the ability to take a client’s dream and make it into a reality with the highest quality. I enjoy working for Rost and creating outdoor spaces so that everybody can enjoy the outdoors as much as I do.

After touring the University of Missouri I realized I was intrigued by their Plant Science Degree with an emphasis in Landscape Design. As a Columbia native, I went to daycare with the Rost kids and came to know the family very well! More than 20 years later, I was very blessed when they offered me a design intern position at Rost, Inc. which then turned into me being offered the position of Maintenance Manger. This job reveals new challenges every day that push my creative skills while meeting the client’s needs. Then, they can enjoy their outdoor space as much as their inside.

Bio

I began officially working for Rost Inc. in 2010 after years of doing odd jobs growing up while around the business. Since then, I have worked in every division of the company from retail and rewholesale to irrigation and landscape design. My time in each branch helped me see the bigger picture and understand how each branch works in conjunction with one another to create a truly complete landscape.
After completing my degree in Horticulture and Landscape Design from the University of Missouri in 2018, I transitioned into my current position as Landscape Designer. Constantly pushing the envelope and challenging our take on the traditional outdoor space is what motivates me and makes me leave the office each day with a smile on my face.
