Flowers have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My dad has spent over 45 years in the flower industry as a wholesaler in the Los Angeles Flower District, and growing up, I watched firsthand the dedication, long hours, and love that goes into this industry. Those early mornings and busy aisles became my classroom.

I didn’t learn floral design from books or formal training—I learned by doing. I taught myself through experience, curiosity, and passion for creating beauty. Love designing and playing with flowers. Working alongside my dad allowed me to understand flowers at their root: where they come from, how they’re cared for, and the meaning they hold. Flowers will forever be

Over time, that passion turned into a dream of building something of my own. Stems Floral was born from years of hard work, family legacy, and the desire to create designs that feel intentional, emotional, and timeless. Today, having my own shop is more than a business—it’s a continuation of my family’s story, carried forward through every arrangement I create.
