Hi, I’m Carianne
I’m a native plant specialist with 30 years of experience restoring pollinator and wildlife habitat in urban landscapes.
In 2019, I founded Strategic Habitat Enhancements to design joyful, climate-resilient spaces that support both people and ecosystems through thoughtful native plant strategies.
I have contributed to pollinator gardens in National Parks and National Wildlife Refuges, as well as large-scale habitat restoration projects in both urban and wild landscapes.
My work includes collaborations with regional conservation nonprofits and community organizations across southern Arizona.
I also teach the Advanced SmartScape course Sustainable Landscaping through the UA/Pima County Cooperative Extension and work closely with Master Gardeners in multiple Arizona counties.
