Brenda herself is listed among Singapore Tatler Best Florist since 2006 - until now. An impressive feat of 15 years at the top of her game. During the pandemic, where events and the wedding industry are badly affected, she is faced with a business dilemma, and yet she persevered. In this interview, she reveals her process and mindset that keeps her at the top of her game. But beyond her amazing accolades, she is a friendly and warm personality that makes everyone at ease in her presence. We have worked together on projects and I am so glad to call her my friend and I hope to dig a little deeper into her perseverance mindset.
