Our Story

Plants have been a source of comfort and inspiration for me since childhood—even before I knew horticulture could become my life's work. I’ve always believed that plants enrich our lives in quiet, powerful ways. Simply being around greenery can bring calm, focus, and healing.

When I discovered horticulture as a career, I knew I had found my path—and I never looked back.

Since 2003, I’ve worked throughout Orange County as a nursery buyer, earned certification in interior plantscaping, won national design awards, been featured on HGTV, and started a thriving interior plant company. Each role deepened my love for what I do and affirmed my belief that great plant design isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about improving lives.

I believe everyone deserves to live and work in spaces that feel alive. When you're indoors all day—staring at screens or fluorescent lights—a thoughtfully placed plant can make all the difference. It connects you to nature, lifts your mood, and reminds you to breathe.

Starting Environments by Miko was a natural step.
It allows me to combine creativity, personal service, and a deep-rooted passion for plants into something meaningful for others.

I look forward to inspiring you with thoughtful design, superior service, and living elements that bring joy to your space.
