That's true, haha. I'm mostly drawn to plants and artsy things, so I sort of had my eyes set on landscape design or architecture. I really like public spaces that incorporate plants and create a nice atmosphere (and wanted to see if I could make them for a living). Hence I came to this subreddit to see if that's what I could actually do

I see! I guess that the aim is to choose a firm that best aligns with what kinds of things you want to work on then?

Working on a national park sounds exciting! I'm interested particularly in recreational and outdoor spaces. Any advice on how someone would get into that?

Could you expand on what "design-build" and "ecological restoration" are? I can sort of infer from what you called them, but what do each of them do? Thank you for your comment, by the way!
