Claire Kesecker is the Director of Landscape Architecture at Monteverde Engineering & Design Studio and serves as their primary designer for both active and passive open space amenities. Claire meets the design challenge by accentuating natural site components, creating sustainable spaces that compliment a site’s inherent beauty and minimize full transfiguration. Claire is committed to rehabilitating the environment through the use of native plants and materials, so she continually works to expand her knowledge for the climate in the Valley.  With significant experience in both park and trail projects, Claire provides an invaluable resource in the design of public spaces - spanning from the collaborative involvement of public input methods to creating the greatest play experience for children and to the finalization of construction documents.
