Over twenty years ago I came to the United States from a small village in El Salvador. I made my way to Boston without knowing more than a few words in English. Throughout the next 3 years I set my sights on working to make enough money to send home to my family and learning the language. I never expected during this time to discover the craft that would bring me to where I am today. I began working in maintenance and simply cleaning up after designers. From there I began to learn about flowers - processing, varieties and eventually designing. I never knew the talent that was within and once I was able to use it my world changed. Floral and Event Design has been not only my work and creative outlet but it has also gifted me with seeing the world. From a State Dinner at the White House under the Obama Administration, to meeting growers in Amsterdam, and colleagues in Paris and Miami and bringing couples dreams to life throughout New England - I have been truly blessed.

I now look forward to the next twenty years. My goal is to give my clients the events they’ve dreamed of. Whether it be an intimate dinner at their home or a grand soiree in a luxurious ballroom, I will give them the same dedicated service.
