Originally from Ciudad de Estelí, Nicaragua, Juan's journey to becoming a skilled landscaper was rooted in his childhood fascination with agriculture. "I have always been interested in agriculture, cultivating different types of vegetables. I wanted to be a farmer," Juan reminisces. Joining Seiler's a year ago, Juan began his work transforming outdoor spaces for happy homeowners. Despite his relatively short time in the industry, Juan's dedication and enthusiasm have made him an integral part of the team.

Juan's responsibilities range from installing mulch and planting flowers to mowing grass and pruning trees.

"The detail is in the job," he explains, and anyone who has seen his work will agree. Juan shows a true sense of care that elevates Seiler's Landscaping projects and sets us apart from our competitors.

Outside of work, Juan finds joy in playing sports, with baseball holding a special place in his heart. His love for outdoor activities goes hand-in-hand with his care for the natural world. In terms of pro sports, while his loyalty lies with the Los Angeles Dodgers, his newfound home in Cincinnati has sparked a love for the Reds. 

When asked about his favorite vacation spot, Juan fondly recalls a trip to San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, a beach that left an impact on his memory. When planning future adventures, he sets his sights on Miami, Florida, as his ultimate vacation destination.

Despite his love for Chick-fil-A, Juan remains deeply rooted in his Nicaraguan heritage, his favorite dish being Gallo Pinto, a traditional rice and bean dish. It reminds him of his cultural roots and culinary ability. Juan even reveals a hidden talent for cooking dairy products such as cheese, crème, cuajada, queso con vegetables and more.
