A BIT ABOUT ME

I live in the gorgeous Saffron Walden in Essex.
Before my school work experience at the age of 15 i had no idea what i wanted to do, but after just one week in a flower shop i was hooked and knew this was the perfect career for me!

If i'm not playing with flowers you can usually find me cooking, socialising with friends or playing with my dogs.

My favourite flower… Red Charm Peonies

EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS

I have achieved a distinction in both level 2 & 3 in work based floristry, which i completed as apprenticeship whilst working full time in a flower shop.

I have worked full time in floristry since i was 16 in 4 different shops.

During my 7 years in the industry i have covered a range of different floristry skills from wedding and events, to funerals, to general gift bouquets.

My most recent floristry position was as senior florist to a very busy Cambridge city centre based Flower Shop.

I have recently set up an instagram page to show my work and advertise my skills with the hope to build up more work of my own and eventually launch as my own business.
