WORK HISTORY
Founder @Hp Landscaping
TX, US
Built from the ground up literally, this company began with a push mower in high school at age fifteen and evolved into a disciplined, purpose driven enterprise through relentless execution, long term thinking, and faith anchored leadership. Founded in 2020, the business matured quietly until a decisive inflection point in 2025, when the founder went all in with full conviction and clarity of vision.In its first true growth year, the company scaled from six figures to multi seven figures with exactly 350 percent year over year growth from 2024 to 2025 without sacrificing cash flow, quality, or operational control. From an outside perspective, the result is striking not merely because of speed, but because of discipline. This growth was not accidental. It was driven by engineered systems, repeatable processes, and a design build framework created to scale without founder dependency.At just twenty years old, the founder demonstrated rare resolve, strategic clarity, and executional maturity. Those close to the operation describe relentless persistence, disciplined thinking, and an unshakable refusal to quit, forged through long hours and uncompromising standards.From sales architecture and pricing discipline to margin control and a white glove client experience, the company operates on institutional grade fundamentals while maintaining startup agility. Cash flow was prioritized alongside growth, ensuring sustainability rather than vanity expansion.Today, the founder operates as a strategic, distant leader focused on vision, capital allocation, systems, and culture, while the company executes independently at a high level. Above all, the company exists for more than profit. Its success is stewarded with humility and purpose, giving generously to ministries worldwide. That conviction is embedded in the name itself, Higher Purpose Landscaping and Higher Purpose Construction, a reminder that every achievement traces back to the Almighty Creator in heaven.
ABOUT PAXSON LAYNE COLE BERKEY
Paxson Berkey is a founder and builder whose work began the way many stories do, but few endure, with a push mower at age fifteen and a determination to turn effort into enterprise. That early discipline matured into the founding of HP Landscaping in 2020, a company that would later become the proving ground for a larger vision. After learning every facet of the business, Berkey made a decisive move in 2024, stepping away from Texas A&M to pursue entrepreneurship full time and committing fully to the path ahead.That decision was quickly validated. Going door to door selling landscape construction projects, Berkey closed over six figures in his first month, revealing a strong alignment with sales, marketing, and relationship building. In 2025, HP Landscaping entered its first true growth year, scaling from six figures to multi-seven figures with exactly 350% year-over-year growth, achieved without sacrificing cash flow, quality, or operational control. The increase was driven by disciplined systems, repeatable processes, and a design build framework structured to scale beyond founder dependency.While many founders are defined by a single skill, Berkey has been shaped by necessity. Building companies required him to operate across sales, marketing, finance, leadership, and execution, developing the ability to perform under pressure, lead teams through uncertainty, and maintain clarity in demanding environments. His strengths lie in people, building trust, aligning teams around a shared mission, and creating cultures where others buy into something larger than themselves.Today, Berkey oversees a growing portfolio of businesses including HP Landscaping, HP Outdoors focused on pools and outdoor living, HP Architecture focused on design and planning services, Restore Marketing company, an AI automation firm, Restore Consulting company, and L3 (Layne’s Land Legacy) a land development company. Through these ventures, he helps homeowners, commercial clients, and buisness owners across the nation design, build, and scale with intention.At the center of all of it is faith. Berkey credits his endurance and capacity to lead under pressure to his Father in Heaven, seeking to steward success with humility and generosity. His work is driven by a calling to give, support ministries, and use business as a platform for service. In his view, companies are temporary, but purpose is eternal, and leadership is measured by obedience, impact, and the lives uplifted along the way.
