My Journey:

I grew up in a tiny little upstate NY town that was once known as the peppermint capital of the world. I lived there for most of my life, although I did also live in places like San Diego and Rhode Island when I was a very small child. Some of my happiest memories from when I was younger include the beaches in Rhode Island. Though, nothing quite compares to a summer’s day on a boat somewhere in the Finger lakes region.

I went to college, not too far from home, Syracuse University. A couple years later I found myself in Tulsa, OK. Tulsa will always hold a special place for me… That is where I got engaged to my now husband and where we rescued our Stevie Nicks (the pup) and Kat Cobain (the cat, of course). After another few years we moved to Lexington, KY.

Lexington made me the florist that I am today. I spent just under two years learning the craft from one of Lexington’s most well-known florists, Michler’s. During my time there, they sent me to Paris, France to study under Catherine Muller. These experiences made me fall in love with the artistry of floristry. Along the way I’ve done arrangements for Lizzo, Latto, Kelsea Ballerini, and hundreds of Lexingtonians. My passion for this industry led me to start my own business. A space where people can feel inspired to reach for the unknown potential of a flower’s journey from farm to vessel. Because at the end of the day, I believe floristry is an art and is something that should always be pushing the boundary on what it can be.

If you have a wild idea or not a clue in the world, that’s okay. I’m here for you. So, let’s talk flowers?
