Angelique Robb, a certified landscape designer and owner of award-winning Papillon Designs and Landscaping in Scotland, UK, launched the idea for SYNKD in January 2021. Built upon Angelique's passion for the profession and helping it "raise the bar," today SYNKD media and the SYNKD Live events unite landscape professionals across architecture, construction, and horticulture to accelerate progress, spark innovation, and shape a more sustainable planet - one smart solution at a time.

Angelique's mindset is one of constant growth. Initially launching SYNKD as the magazine brand Pro Landscaper and the event FutureScape USA, she is constantly evolving and crystallizing goals for the landscape industry—just as she did with her design-build company. In 2008, after qualifying as a landscape designer, she launched Papillon and built the company into a national award-winning design + build + maintain practice.

Angelique graduated from Louisiana State University with a degree in Petroleum Engineering, and worked in the oil industry for many years in the USA and UK. She has now returned to her hometown in Lafayette, LA.

Dustin Walker is the Owner and President of Landscape St. Louis, a high-end residential landscape design, build firm based in St. Louis, Missouri. After building leadership experience outside the green industry, Dustin made the intentional leap into landscape ownership, acquiring Landscape St. Louis and stepping into the challenge of leading an established company through transition and growth.

In his first year as owner, Dustin focused on learning the business from the ground up—working closely with crews, designers, and operations leaders to understand the realities of production, job costing, horticulture, and client expectations. That first year was defined by balancing respect for the company's legacy with the need to improve systems, clarify roles, and build a foundation for scalable growth.

Dusty brings a disciplined, process-driven mindset to the landscape industry, with a strong emphasis on people, intentionality, and craftsmanship. What drives him most is building a company where talented professionals can do their best work and where clients feel confident trusting their homes and properties to the team.
