Forever Green

Having worked in the music industry as a PA for 10 years, I left to have my daughter, Ellie, and in 1997 moved to rural Hertfordshire. In 2008 I realised that my passion for gardening and flowers could be more than just a hobby. Having been a complete failure at school, I nervously decided to enrol at College. That was six years ago, and I still love being a mature student! In the past six years, I have started my own business, juggled with home life, and studied for and passed my City and Guilds levels 2 & 3 with distinction and have just completed my level 4 Higher Diploma at Merrist Wood College in Guildford (results awaiting). I have however already been offered a place to study at Guildford for my Master Diploma in Floristry in 2015, which I am delighted about. I have converted my garage into a studio. In addition to very early starts to the flower markets, I also use my beautiful garden for different foliages and flowers that I can use in my designs.
