Born in China, Jane has a background in architecture where she has both worked and lectured extensively on the subject. In recent years, Jane’s work has moved in another direction where her interest in design has further flourished through the study and practice of floristry.

Since graduating from the Ohara school in 2017, Jane has completed her Certificate III in Floristry as well as her Certificate IV in Training and Assessment at Box Hill Institute. An experienced and talented florist, she now teaches casually at CAE and a number of other private institutions.
Jane’s passion for nature extends to almost everything flower-related including the planting, arranging, and pressing of flowers.
