Meredith loves gardening and loves Kitsilano. So writing about gardening in Kits suits her perfectly. She's worked in the IT industry, more recently as a garden designer, and am a master gardener. She's retired now and entertains herself with her husband, her two Tibetan terriers and her ever evolving garden.
