Hello!

I am a garden designer specialising in planting design. I love creating highly personal and emotive gardens which benefit both people and wildlife.

Sustainability lies firmly at the heart of my designs with a strong emphasis on biophillic principles. I am interested in urban greening as well as therapeutic gardens and public spaces. I hope to take on more projects of this nature as I develop as a designer.

I have a National Diploma in Graphic Design and Foundation Degree in Horticulture: Garden Design. Highlights include winning the RHS Peoples Choice Award for my show garden 'Elements of Sheffield' at RHS Chatsworth Flower Show and coming third place in the Regional Finals of Young Horticulturist of the Year 2019.

"If you cant find me, I'll be in the garden" is a statement that many who know me well, would agree with! If I'm not designing beautiful outdoor spaces for other people I'm tinkering in my own garden which is a constantly evolving project. Other hobbies and interests include, the wonderful world of art and design, visiting historic gardens, hiking in wild places, wildlife (especially insects) and botany.
