It is a calm Thursday evening, Kelly Smith stands in her homemade green house. Her new passion project plant is almost complete
"Grow my baby grow"
Kelly is 32 years old and lives in suburban Texas with her boyfriend Jason. Kelly developed an interest in botany and horticultural in college, one of friends who was a bio major at the time brought her along to the gardening club. Kelly's friend saw that Kelly was stressed out from being both a computer engineering and computer science major and wanted her to destress. Kelly instantly fell in love with gardening, botany, and horticulture. Although she is a software engineer, she maintains a peak interest for the field and it is her favorite hobby to this day. Mentioning Kelly's job she is a senior level software engineer for a multinational company and is paid very well and gets to work from home minus one or two days a month for meetings. This high amount of discretionary income combined with her engineering skills has allowed Kelly to build an impressive garden in her large backyard. Her medium sized greenhouse is fully automated and futuristic. She grows a variety of plants in her garden and greenhouse but this particular passion project is something she is very proud of and she hopes to use it soon.
