Business highlight of the week
This week we are featuring Katty Simbana who opened her business, Juliette Floral, earlier this year.
Katty is an Ecuador native, her passion for flowers started from visiting flower farms in Ecuador where some of the most beautiful roses come from. At the young age of 14 her love for flowers continued; that's when she moved to New York City and started working at local floral shops.
After some time working in studios she decided to go to The New York Flower School to expand her craft. When finished at school she continued working to gain more experience in the floral field with several Master Designers. In 2021 she opened Juliette Floral Design, named after her baby daughter with a vision to share her love and inspiration for florals.
Visit Juliette Floral’s website and check out their Instagram.
