With over thirty-five years experience in floral design and seasonal styling, I know well the joy that beautiful flowers bring to our client's homes, special occasions and ordinary days.

After graduating from Ohio State University with a degree in horticulture, I worked with some of Columbus’ top florists, before venturing out on my own with Natural Designs. Since then, I have been privileged to work with countless brides, designing elegant and truly memorable weddings and with both corporate and private clients, to bring sophistication and smiles to their most important occasions.

There’s nothing like the Holidays, and at Natural Designs, we delight in creating décor that brings the Merry & Bright season to life in our client's homes. From a stunning entrance to a sparkling holiday party, our experience with design and hospitality promises seasonal accents that are beautiful and stylish. We love knowing what we create for the holidays is enjoyed by our clients, their family and friends.

Whether you are planning a grand party, an intimate evening or a festive Christmas, I look forward to helping you celebrate beautifully.
