Andrew Trodler joins Saratoga Associates with over 19 years of experience in all phases and facets of landscape architecture throughout the Carolinas, Texas, and New York State. Andrew has worked on urban, resort, commercial, institutional, residential, golf course, and mixed-use projects. Andrew’s recent endeavors involve the use of 3D computer modeling and imaging. His role has been in creating the vision or the story of what a project holds for a better understanding by clients, stakeholders, municipalities, and consultants.

Jacob Dilson
Jacob Dilson joined Saratoga Associates in October as well. He received his Master of Landscape Architecture this past spring (2019), and has hit the ground running as SA’s Junior Landscape Designer. His responsibilities range from design drawings; to feasibility studies and site research; to fieldwork (some days you might find him in a forest or swamp). A native of Queens, New York, he is excited for this opportunity to enhance the state’s ecosystems and urban communities— and to channel his lifelong passion for the arts towards creating physical spaces. When he’s not working, Jacob enjoys writing, sketching, and swing dancing.
