About VHS

Chris

Owner & Consultant

Chris measures success a little differently. He'd rather have a reputation for doing what he said he would do than for being the biggest landscaping company in town. He visits job sites, checks in with the team, and works with clients to find thoughtful, practical solutions.
 

Growing up, money was tight, and Chris learned early to take care of what he had. As a kid, he rebuilt lawnmowers instead of replacing them. That same practicality still shows up in the way he runs VHS.
 

Chris is still the guy who sees what needs to be done and figures it out. When the work is done, he doesn't sit still for long. You'll usually find him outside, on a bike, walking the dogs, or heading somewhere to camp for the weekend.

Sean

Consultant

Sean is one of those people who would rather show you than tell you. With more than 12 years of experience in outdoor construction, he spent years building patios and laying stone before ever meeting with homeowners as a consultant. He knows where details matter, where money is well spent, and when a simpler solution is the better one.

Honest, practical, and easy to talk to, Sean brings a "let's figure it out" attitude to every project. He's been part of the VHS team for nearly six years because he enjoys working alongside people who care about quality, customer service, and doing right by every client. Coworkers will tell you he's one of the funniest people on the team, even if he'd never say so himself.

Rebecca

Design Coordinator

Rebecca didn't expect landscaping to become her career, but spending time outdoors has always been part of who she is. As a kid, she was gardening with her mom, catching butterflies, and hiking with her dad. Her career took a few unexpected turns through agriculture, brewing, and even tech before she found her way to the San Antonio Botanical Garden, where she discovered a passion for creating outdoor spaces that bring people together. 
 

Rebecca has a knack for taking ideas and turning them into a design. Drawing on her background in horticulture and soil science, she blends creativity with a practical understanding of plants, soil, and construction to help homeowners see what's possible while making the design process feel approachable from start to finish.

Jose

Project Manager

Nothing slips past Jose. He started his career installing landscapes before learning consulting, estimating, and project management. Having worked on both the planning and construction sides of a project helps him anticipate problems and keeps communication flowing between clients and crews.

Jose takes on new challenges with a smile and is always looking for better products, installation methods, and ways to serve clients. He'd also much rather be walking a job site, supporting the crews, and watching the work take shape than sitting behind a desk.

Byron

Project Manager

Some people see a problem. Byron starts thinking about solutions. With 40 years in the irrigation industry and a TCEQ irrigator's license, there's a good chance he's seen your drainage, irrigation, or grading challenge before. Years in the field have also taught him to notice things others might miss, from the flow of the ground to the structure of a tree.
 

Byron grew up on a ranch, tagging along with his grandfather and dad before he was old enough to work beside them. That early connection to the land never left. Outside of VHS, he's still a rancher, with cattle to tend, fences to fix, and usually a fishing story to tell.

Jenn

Marketing & Communications

Jenn didn't grow up knowing the names of plants or dreaming about landscaping. Over the years, though, she's come to appreciate the little things that make a backyard hard to leave. These days, she'll happily point out a beautiful oak tree, almost always choose the patio over a table inside, and has become the proud owner of more houseplants than she ever expected.
 

Jenn handles the VHS website, photography, social media, and much of what clients see before they meet the team. Her job is to give homeowners a real look at the people behind the projects, make useful information easy to find, and help clients know what to expect before their first consultation.
