Our founder
Brenda De Leon
Founder, Peak Landscaping & Design
Before Peak, Brenda spent a decade managing a high-end construction firm and consulting for contractors building their own businesses. Along the way she fell for the quiet, health-giving craft of landscape design.
She founded Peak Landscaping & Design in 2007 around a simple vision: real professionalism, and people who genuinely care about the work. Twenty years later, that belief still runs the company, and it shows in the reputation we've earned for showing up, communicating, and treating every property like it's our own.
"An employee-focused culture carries over to our customers, and leads to better performance in the field."
