Additional Information:

My passion for flowers began in childhood, inspired by my father’s gardening. I am a dedicated gardener, growing my own stems for brides and supporting both local and international farmers.

  • Sustainability is at the heart of everything I do—I avoid chemicals and use natural methods whenever possible.
  • Innovation & Foraging Spirit: I often describe myself as a floral forager, wandering through woods and gardens searching for unique stems, textures, and inspiration. I love preserving what I find—whether through drying, pressing, or reimagining—to give blooms a second life.
  • Home-Grown & Local: I grow many of my own stems, adding a truly personal and seasonal touch to my designs, never using artificial dyes.
  • Teaching & Workshops: I love teaching floral design, sharing techniques like spiral bouquet-making, modern creative designs, pressed-flower artistry, and foraging-inspired arrangements.
  • Passion for Weddings: I am deeply committed to my brides and clients, with wedding work being one of my greatest joys.
  • Personal Interests: I travel for weddings, love exploring new cultures, and have a passion for languages, flowers, and nature.
