I spent a lot of time in the garden when I was a child. My maternal grandmother lived with us and she was always tending to her vegetable patch. My brother, sister and I always did our best to help, but I’m sure we were more of a hindrance! My love of gardening grew from there, but I had no idea it would lead me down this garden path – I didn’t even know you could have a career in horticulture!

I studied a Bachelor of Science in Horticulture, which, surprisingly, led to a role in magazine publishing. From there, I decided to expand my knowledge and skill set and obtained a Diploma of Landscape Design.

What I love most about my work is sharing the joy of gardening with people. Horticulture is so multifaceted – that’s what keeps it interesting! At the moment, I mostly write horticulture or gardening features (including for H&G), but I also design and consult on indoor plant spaces and host planting workshops through my business, Leaf an Impression. I love that there are so many avenues to engage with people.

My workday always starts with gratitude and meditation practice. Then I grab a coffee and dive into answering emails. The rest of the day is usually spent at the computer writing, but some days it gets mixed up with nursery visits, site visits or preparing for workshops.
