Landscape design

Welcome to the landscape design website. 
 
My name is Mr. Lamancusa,  I am a dual major in elementary and special education.  I graduated in 2006 from West Branch High school and in 2010 from Mercyhurst University.  I have also had 10 years of landscape experience.  I will be replacing the recently retired landscape instructor John Hippley.  I have worked under Mr. Hippley for the past 10 years for his personal landscape business.  I am familiar with the gardens and am looking forward to working with Mrs. Woods and and the landscape design students.
