I am a professionally trained floral designer with a passion for floral design and bringing joy to people with flowers. Professionally trained by the late Michael Polychrones, AIFD, I also had the honor of working alongside and learning from dozens of talented designers throughout my career. I held the positions of floral designer, wedding consultant and manager at several Northern Virginia full-service retail flower shops. 

I also operated my own wedding flower business for over a decade in the early 2000s. I thoroughly enjoyed working with every client and being part of their wedding journey. In 2011, I was lucky enough to take my own walk down the aisle and started a family shortly after that. With three young boys and a full-time job in publishing, I decided to let my floral business wind down. 

I’ve continued to design flowers for friends and family, and now that my boys are getting older, I decided to return to the career I am passionate about. I’m so grateful to be able to share my talent, experience and expertise to create exquisite and memorable floral arrangements for my clients and their loved ones to cherish.
