So she’s a bank teller? jk, my sister has a landscape architecture degree from LSU, I’ve never known anyone with that degree, except her ex boyfriend from LSU, to actually work in that field, and I think his business thrived because his Godfather is Camille Gravell ?

She worked for Tulane dong something or other, then went to Columbia for grad school and ended up working for them managing their real estate portfolio. Columbia owns a lot of NYC property which makes a significant part of its endowment. She inherited a little money and moved back to Louisiana. She does some volunteering with historic preservation type stuff. I think she's got it in her head that she'd like to write a book. I dont know if she ever will.

As you inferred, it's pretty hard to make a living doing the actual work of landscape architecture.
