Greensaw was not always the well-mannered, organized powerhouse that you know and love. In meeting us today, you would never imagine us the chest-beating proto-humans wrestling over the last piece of 80 grit sand paper. You have Marsha to thank for this. In addition to lending her severely acute design sensibility to the design/build practice, she'll zing you in the office for being less than prepared as a project manager. Born in the farmlands of Jamaica and raised in the bureaucratic efficiencies of Canada, Marsha is both wildly imaginative and painstakingly scrupulous.
So, what makes her tick? Coffee and Composition. Shortly after completing a Bachelor in Fine Art, Marsha graduated to the ranks of struggling artist. From this she moved on to successful artist and small business owner in Montego Bay. For years she designed and arranged flower-scapes for all manner of clients and events before turning her attention back to continental North America and the pursuit of architecture. She completed her Master of Architecture degree at the University of British Columbia in 2009, and, as Associate AIA, is on her way to licensure. Towards this, her interest lies in the design of expediency, the aesthetics of the makeshift, and the richness of a slow-build tradition which excites a community. If you ever want two cents worth a buck, ask Marsha.
