And I'm Jyoni!

Design Partner

My inspiration comes from my rich heritage, years of living abroad, and experiences in sustainability.

Our approach is personal – we get to know you, your style, and your space’s natural features to create a landscape that feels just right.

A Family Tradition

Inspired by my childhood experiences in my late parents' landscaping company, Sylvan Valley evolved from a passion for gardening and design that runs generations deep.

Hello, I’m Mark!

Founder of Sylvan Valley Design

I'm passionate about helping folks deepen their connection to nature – through inviting backyards, edible gardens, and pet-friendly spaces.
 

When I'm not transforming bland backyards, I'm creating tabletop gardens and other eco-friendly decor.

"Creative and collaborative, Mark is a joy to work with! I'm in love with our yard and so glad I FINALLY found a designer who can go beyond cookie-cutter."
