GreenWorks announces two professionals join the firm – Jeff Boggess, and Wes Shoger. Jeff Boggess, Associate rejoins GreenWorks as a landscape designer with experience in recreational, infrastructure and urban design. Beginning in 2002, Jeff enjoyed 2 years with GreenWorks before departing on a five-year venture working for the German firm Atelier Dreiseitl. While with Atelier Dreiseitl, Jeff divided his time between the firm’s offices in Germany, Singapore and China.

From new eco-cities designed for 1.5 million inhabitants to small-scale stormwater cleansing biotopes enjoyed by people and wildlife, Jeff gained diverse international experience that he brings back to GreenWorks. Jeff provides a functional design aesthetic that is modern, provocative, and promotes social and environmental accountability.

Wes Shoger joins GreenWorks as a landscape designer with experience in streetscape, plaza, transit and urban design. Wes’s interests lie in the integration of green infrastructure in cities; He is excited about being a part of a group that practices environmental stewardship as a core belief.
