Having been a Senior (Prince Practitioner Certified) Project Manager in IT for the 12 years I’d become frustrated at working on goliaths of slow rumbling projects. I yearned to unleash my hidden creative side, even having to subdue my mohawk into a more acceptable hairstyle for work was a daily struggle.
Gardening had always been my retreat and my passion. After one particularly gruelling project in 2015, I thought enough is enough, I need more meaning to my working life.
I knew that these Project Management skills would stand me in good stead. I’m also a big believer in taking the fuss out of life where possible. I set out on a mission to get the necessary qualifications and experience to make the jump to becoming a Garden Designer.
I’ve combined project management along with my horticulture knowledge to give you the best garden design options, on time, on budget and without any fuss. I decided it was about time I played to my strengths and embarked on becoming a Garden Designer and Garden Blogger.
With my enthusiasm unleashed and my mohawk set to maximum height, I strapped on my wellies and ventured out into this bold new world and have never looked back.
My blog covers both my Garden Design services and also a number of handy tips and tricks for those starting out in the world of gardening. I am passionate that gardening is a form of therapy that everyone can benefit from. Whether you have a small balcony or sprawling estate, gardening is a leisure activity that can drastically cut stress and breath calm into your life.
My gardening blog guides and videos will help you get started and take away some of the confusion around gardening.
I believe every garden no matter how weed-infested, unloved or lumpy bumpy can become a room of your house you can’t wait to escape to.
Professional garden design lets you sit back and enjoy the excitement as your dream garden is designed and created just for you.
I believe that anything is possible when designing gardens. Whether you want calm tranquillity or exciting drama. Let Garden Ninja transform your garden, balcony or paved plot into a room you never knew you could have.
Garden design isn’t just terracing your overgrown backyard, low maintenance shrubs or expensive block paving. It can be so much more. Get in touch to see what possibilities await you.
Garden Ninja is also available for work within the media such as TV appearances, radio talk shows or segments. I have a Youtube channel showing all of my current how-to videos. I also write articles on gardening and opinion pieces. Please get in touch to enquire about any of the above.
