In 2001, with a degree in Art History and many years spent working in art galleries and museums, I decided on a change of career. I trained in Garden Design at the English Gardening School, based at the Chelsea Physic Garden, obtaining the accolade of Top Student in 2002. My RHS Chelsea Flower Show 'Highflyers Haven' garden won a coveted Silver-Gilt medal in 2002. From 2005 the practice has been based in Oxford and serves the surrounding counties. I have built links with local landscapers, plant nurseries and garden lighting specialists, which enables me to offer a comprehensive one-stop shop for my clients. I am a Pre-Registered member of the Society of Garden Designers.
