Floral Designer, Author, Mentor
"Flower nerd...yup, that's me!
I hail from the suburbs of Philadelphia and I love all things flowers, especially learning about them and spreading my flower know-how. A few decades in retail has fostered a fierce customer service background in me. Ten years of management has shown me what it means to be a true leader and how to utilize the strengths of those around me. A dozen years of immersing myself in network circles that include designers at the top echelon of their craft has lead me to strive toward that too....something I will always be reaching for as there is never an end to learning. Now an international educator, a presenter, a traveler, a bud to all flower friends that I meet, a freelancer and a connector...this industry is truly my life! Oh yeah....and a proud member of the American Institute of Floral Designers and the Professional Floral Communicators International!"
