About
It all started…
in 2003, when I founded Flowerworks.
I grew up in London and worked in human resources and recruitment after I left University. Later, my career path took a creative turn and I began to organise large exhibitions and events. Since then, I have gathered a wealth of experience and knowledge in the Floristry world and have worked on many collaborations and projects with well known Floral designers based in UK & Europe.
My interest in nature is deep-rooted from an early age, which was heavily influenced by my parents who are farmers in India. Having come from an agricultural background, I draw from influences from the natural world, art, travel and anything botanical. I have carried on this tradition as a part-time olive oil farmer, I aim to maintain the traditional and artisanal methods of cultivation running small-scale olive groves in Abruzzo, Italy.
I am also a Medical Herbalist, after four years of studying a degree in Clinical Herbalism, and an accredited member of the National Institute of Medical Herbalists (NIMH), with extensive experience of working with herbs native to the British Isles and across Europe. Currently, I am studying for an MSc in Clinical Nutrition. I am a true believer in the health benefits that can stem from nature, both for food and medicine, and I am on a mission to explore this further.
