My love for flowers started when I was 14 working at a garden centre that specialised in roses. From there, my passion and experience grew as I gained my floristry qualifications and spent invaluable time working in flower shops.
I then went on to design for some of our high-end retailers and was part of the team for a gold award-winning garden at the RHS Chelsea flower show.
Another highlight of my career was winning The Wedding Industry Award, ‘Wedding florist of the year’, for the East of England region. This was extremely special to me as I was nominated by all my couples I had worked with over that year.
You'll usually find me surrounded by flowers in my rather cold workshop - tucked away in St Ives town centre. I live in my dungarees and many layers of thermals that keep me warm, plus a constant supply of tea and biscuits to fuel my flower-filled life!
