EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS

Level 2 Floristry qualification - Grade Distinction.

In 2020, after spending 10 years in hospitality, I was put on furlough for a year and a half. It gave me the opportunity to discover what interested me. Furthermore, I started to become interested in horticulture and grew my own flowers, which I nurtured from seeds and used to create floral arrangements at home. After furlough, I worked with florists, helping in florist shops and at events freelancing. Whilst working I also studied Level 2 Floristry at Bristol college, which I received a distinction in. Additionally, this led to me setting up my own business in Wiltshire, called Changing Seasons flowers. I am experienced in events, such as corporate and weddings. Changing Seasons flowers only use seasonal British grown florals. This shines through in my work as I love to capture the wildness and uniqueness of the florals I use, therefore showing them off in their most natural form.

Experience:

Intermediate - 2 years
