I’ve always believed that the best gardens are the ones that become part of everyday life.

The places where you enjoy your morning coffee, gather with family, watch the seasons change and spend more time outdoors.

That belief has shaped every step of my journey.

Before becoming a garden designer, I spent 15 years working in Early Years Education and Forest School, helping children discover the joy and wonder of being outside. Those years showed me just how powerful outdoor spaces can be—not only for play and learning, but for wellbeing, creativity and connection at every stage of life.

Wanting to combine that passion with my love of plants and design, I qualified as an RHS Horticulturist before completing a Diploma in Professional Garden Design. Today, I bring together horticultural knowledge, thoughtful design and a love of nature to create gardens that feel beautiful, functional and uniquely personal.

Whether it’s a compact courtyard, a family garden or a wildlife-friendly retreat, I believe every outdoor space has the potential to become somewhere people truly love spending time.

My approach is collaborative and relaxed. I’ll take the time to understand how you live, what inspires you and how you want your garden to feel, creating a design that reflects your lifestyle while working beautifully with its surroundings.

If you’re dreaming of a garden that’s rooted in nature and designed for real life, I’d love to be part of your journey...
