I create gardens because I love it.

I firmly believe that gardens can shape a better future by bringing people somewhere where they can experience vibrant and immersive flora and fauna, feeling present, calm, and well.

Originally a gardener, I then went on to train professionally at Capel Manor. Following this I took on roles at historic and renowned gardens, then set up Eaglestone Gardens in 2007, winning the overall Design and Build category at the APL Awards in 2016.

I have had the good fortune to collaborate with some of the most well-known and inspirational designers working today. Whilst working at Arne Maynard Garden Design, I worked closely with Arne Maynard overseeing all designs and consultations as a Design Associate. On our travels I was incredibly inspired by the gardens and scenery of New York State & North Eastern America.

As an artist, I understand the value of a strong creative vision, influenced and inspired by natural surroundings and client personalities. I have a strong appreciation for the distinctive architecture and historical gardens of Bath, where I grew up.

My knowledge of plants is impressive and ever evolving. I am always learning by taking the opportunities offered to me like working with Derry Watkins at the Great Dixter Plant Fairs, and planting the first bulbs of Piet Oudolf's design at the Bruton Hauser & Wirth gardens.

I have management experience of large, sophisticated, intricate, and international gardens. I also have expertise in providing creative solutions for smaller gardens and phased garden spaces for longer-term projects.

I enjoy designing and creating gardens that completely take you away with wild sweeping colour, which require a light handed approach allowing nature to thrive, and which produce magical moments and memories.
