I’d like to say that I’m a self-proclaimed coffee shop connoisseur looking for the next best vanilla latte artist, florist with my own floral business called Floral Grounds, occasional podcast host (love that journey for us) and a published poet/author of The Closet Poets’ Interlude (You can get your copy HERE). I am currently working on my second book (a little romance novella) to be released late 2026.

♡ I’m glad you’re here, and that you exist. ♡

THIS IS MY creative SAFE HAVEN, MY HAPPY PLACE, MY ONLINE HOME AWAY FROM HOME.

If you couldn’t tell I love all things creative, coffee and floral.

I started this site almost 10 years ago when I was a photographer, since then it has evolved with me through all of my creative pursuits. Currently I am thriving in the world of florals while also working as a full-time corporate girlie in the tech world. I am a capricorn sun, libra moon, and aquarius rising with a hint of introvert. I hyper fixate on music that makes me feel like I am listening to a story play out (current favs: ‘Blame the Moon’ by Hazlett & anything by Noah Kahan). If you’re wondering if I’m a swifite (the answer is immediately yes - Era’s Tour Nash N2 ♡) On the weekends I am usually re-reading the entire sarah j maas universe (ACOTAR girlie for life + yes, I read TOG), rewatching schitt’s creek or new girl, and hanging out with my boyfriend and bestie. Im also the emotional support human for my 4-year-old pitty/hound mix named Potato who swears she is the size of a yorkie.
