Brad’s journey with Plant Solutions began in 2007 when Joe and Pat, co-owners of the company, discovered his exceptional work at an interiorscape design company. Impressed by his design talent, they invited him to join the team, where he quickly made a lasting impact. Brad has played a key role in developing the Scottsdale showroom and has grown various departments, including MossWallArt™, custom botanicals, and holiday installations.
Originally from Hawaii, Brad grew up surrounded by diverse and colorful flora and fauna. He recalls a life-changing moment from his childhood when he first entered a floral shop, seeing plants manipulated into stunning arrangements. The shop owner gifted him a flowering plant, sparking his passion for biophilia. Brad enjoys traveling to meet clients and gather inspiration from new venues, homes, and commercial buildings. He thrives on creativity and values the long-lasting relationships he’s built with repeat clients over the years.
Brad moved to Arizona at age 28 to pursue more creative opportunities and has continued to challenge himself with ongoing design competitions. Brad’s design awards include honors from the Tropical Plant International Expo, Phoenix Art Museum, and Phoenix Home and Garden. Outside of work, he enjoys fashion, cooking, and volunteering with meal delivery services. He lives with his partner of 25 years.
