About me

I am currently a Freelance Floral Designer. I am also lucky enough to work as an Events Coordinator.

I trained as a Floral Designer after spending many years working in London as a Creative Producer for a West End Theatre Producer.
Having worked in Bermuda for a year in 2014/15 I have spent the last 3 years working for myself, building up a list of private clients, and creating installations for fashion brands & restaurant/bars.

I am also an Event Coordinator, and have worked in some of London's most prestigious venues, including The Connaught Hotel, Claridges and The British Museum. These events are generally for high-net-worth individuals, but have also included clients such as Goldman Sachs & Burts Bees.

I'm not afraid of hard work, and I am a team-player. I am confident, un-flappable, professional, quick to interpret a brief, and I understand the need to work to a deadline and to meet (and exceed) client expectations.

I would love to find a role that combines my skills, but am also happy to work either solely as a Floral Designer or as an Events Coordinator; it's all about the role and the opportunity that is presents!

    I work with many clients, both on a freelance basis, and on a contract basis. Events are usually high-profile, with demanding and exacting clients. I thrive on providing those clients with an event that exceeds any expectations, and I am also very aware of the need to keep lines of communication open for a client - this reassures and gives confidence.

Additional Information

  • Theatre

    Prior to training as a Floral Designer, I worked in theatre (in London's West End) for over 10 years. That experience gave me a huge amount of transferable skills. It also means that I am calm under pressure, am not afraid of deadlines, and am adaptable.

    I love to work with people, but am equally happy working by myself. I enjoy collaborating with others but also understand the importance of being able to take initiative and work alone.
