EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS
I have 8 years of direct and hands on experience working in the industry.
In autumn 2020 I completed a 3 day sustainable floral workshop with Sarah Diligent at Tallulah Rose Flower School. I have also done day/multiple day courses with other well known florists including Jay Archer, Linzi (White horse flower company) and India (Vervain).
first started working in the industry in 2013 where I was trained on the job by a local Birmingham florist. I took a more senior position in 2016 which exposed me to all elements of the trade.
Since 2017 I have run my own business, I have a retail shop in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter as well as creating florals for weddings and events.
