We are pleased to announce that Pearl Barro Navo, AIFD will be one of the featured designers at the Santa Ana Christmas Design Show on Sunday September 11, 2011. The following is her bio:
CFD has been in the floral industry for over 25 years. Pearl first began designing in a local shop in high school, and then later working part time while attending college. Flowers have always been her passion, so she looked into floral design as her profession. She began her career by owning the flower shop in the Disneyland Hotel. It was not long after that she then knew the next step would be to get into AIFD , and was inducted in Boston in 1992. She soon founded and planed the new floral department for the Ritz Carlton in Laguna Beach. Later, Pearl began working as a consultant for a high end catering company in Orange County and to this day, continues to add her creative design to their events.
Now, being in AIFD for over 17 years, she enjoys freelancing and traveling for another large event company creating breath taking floral designs for all their shows. Traveling to Hawaii and Jamaica to design floral arrangements for events held by large companies including Nissan and HP, have had to have been a couple of the most exhilarating moments of her design career.
