A BIT ABOUT ME

I love cooking, I cook every night as a means of relaxing. I think the mindful nature of cooking helps to banish the stress of a long working day. I also really enjoy exercising, which is lucky because loving food comes at a price. When I moved to London I took up pottery, again, a mindful activity which helped to relive day-to-day stress. I also love film, TV, drinking wine, travelling, meeting friends, meeting new people and eating out.

Favourite Flower - Chocolate Cosmos

EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS

I am a self-taught florist in that I have no formal qualifications, however I have worked with some of the countries leading florists on some beautiful jobs and have learnt so much from each of them.

I have recently made the decision to change my career from running a large pub on Hampstead Heath to Floristry. I have ran pubs for the last ten years, but long to work in the creative industry as I believe (and have been told) that I'm naturally creative. I am extremely hardworking and driven, but in need of the opportunity to freelance within the floristry world to gain experience and build my portfolio. So far, I have experience conditioning flowers and creating bouquets, large-scale installations, meadows, flower crowns, wreathes, urns, bud vases, plus much more.

Experience:

Beginner - 6 months
