OUR PHILOSOPHY and design approach
Ok, full transparency, I hate talking about myself. But I LOVE my chosen path and being a floral designer. I am blessed to have found what feels like my calling. I genuinely love to connect with all people and I want to know your story. If I am doing your wedding flowers, tell me how the two of you met. If I am doing weekly floral styling for your restaurant, I want to know what your favorite dish is and how you want your customers to feel when they walk inside. So while I will take the time to share how I got to where I am today below, just know that I care about you and/or your clients story and I aim to reflect that in every item I design.
