Helping Hand Landscapes

Hi, I'm Cole

​

I bring over a decade of experience as a Certified Lighting Designer, specializing in creating atmospheric and functional lighting spaces.

Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, my journey led me to Knoxville alongside my wife, Alice. It’s been two years since we made this beautiful place our home. Professionally, I bring over a decade of experience as a landscaping and outdoor lighting professional.

​

My academic background is in Chemistry and Cognitive Science from Penn State University. After graduation, I discovered that the lab environment wasn’t quite my calling. This realization steered me towards entrepreneurship, where I successfully ran my own landscaping business back in Pittsburgh.

​

Outside of my professional life, I cherish spending quality time with my wife and our two beloved dogs. We’re avid outdoor enthusiasts, often found hiking the trails or camping under the stars, embracing the tranquility of nature.
