I am a Horticultural Designer specialising in creating biophilic, sustainable and visually appealing gardens and plant schemes that enable connection with nature  and promote a sense of wellbeing for my clients.

I believe in the restorative power of a garden and the numerous benefits it provides. My goal is to bring nature closer to my clients by creating harmonious and biodiverse outdoor spaces connected with the interiors, since impact on wellbeing can be achieved even by watching nature through a window. 

However, I also try to inspire my clients to take proactive steps towards tending their own gardens and to be confident in doing so, as a bonus for physical and mental health. 

Whilst studying for my qualifications I volunteered as a gardener for the Historical Royal Palaces, working on projects in the The Sunken Garden at Kensington Palace and the formal gardens at Hampton Court Palace. Currently, in my spare time I volunteer for the Wimbledon Guild Community Garden and The Friends of Cannizaro Park. 

These experiences have equipped me with knowledge in design, planting, maintenance and no-dig  method, which  are invaluable to my professional and personal development. I apply these skills to private gardens, offering eco-friendly solutions tailored to the built environment and my client's needs. My designs mainly feature the use of natural materials and planting combinations that are not only aesthetically pleasing year-round but also resilient to climate change.

I hold a RHS Level 3 qualification in Horticulture and am a registered Associate of the Chartered Institute of Horticulture (ACIHort).

Originally from Brazil, I transitioned from a career in Law to pursue my passion for plants in London. 

 I am excited to discuss your garden with you. Let's chat more about how we can create your beautiful outdoor space together
