Working for Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw on the construction of the Bandon Preserve was a formative experience and an education which I will carry with me for a lifetime.

Being around these two great men taught me how important it was to work with the given landscape, using it as an inspiration for the work we were doing rather than something that we were going to change. Their touch around those dunes was nothing short of world class and it has proven itself over time with the popularity of the Bandon Preserve and what it stands for.
