I am an international floral artist, stylist, and instructor with more than 45 years of experience in floral design. Since 1991, I have been based in the heart of Gouda, in the shadow of the Museum Gouda. From Blomatelier Gouda, I create custom bouquets and floral arrangements for interiors, weddings, and events.
When it comes to funeral flowers, I can arrange them quickly, even at the last minute. They’re always personalized and tailored to your needs. You can pick them up, and for large or special orders, I can deliver anywhere in the Netherlands if desired.
As a Dutch Master Florist, I offer professional training, coaching, and creative group workshops. During these workshops, I help teams experience how fresh flowers, natural forms, and sustainable concepts inspire, connect, and stimulate creativity. My mission is to inspire people to let their talents fully blossom.
I have worked with top florists, hotels, and schools around the world, including in Melbourne, Sydney, Singapore, Los Angeles, Toronto, Vancouver, Tokyo, Zurich, and St. Petersburg, and have had the privilege of training professionals from more than 60 countries. I also served as a manager in Germany and Switzerland for three years. As a certified European judge, I have also judged national and international competitions, which keeps me up to date on the latest trends and techniques.
Blomatelier is internationally renowned for its floral runway shows and exclusive floral art, which emphasize craftsmanship, creativity, and sustainability. .
