In 2015 I found myself in the middle of the desert in the UAE, trying to buy flowers from a van off a sandy road as camels walked by. It was then I realized the common belief was that florists needed to rely on weddings to succeed—so I did weddings in Dubai. But when I moved to Houston, I knew I wanted more. I was determined to create consistent income by combining my passion for flowers and luxury hotels, moving beyond depending on weddings and events.
That’s when I discovered Hospitality Floral Design. I built a multi six-figure floral business annually and spent six years as the in-house florist for JW Marriott. I became the go-to florist for Four Seasons during their multi-million dollar renovation and the longest-standing Artist in Residence for Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. Now, I help florists who are ready to stop feeling like they’re constantly hustling, and instead want fewer clients, better clients, and more stability—a way to serve their clients' ongoing needs while creating space in their lives for freedom and creativity.
