Steph
I have always loved being outside, whether it’s learning about gardening by following family around their gardens or exploring new places, camera in hand, photographing amazing plants and landscapes. I am part of the Digital Team at Hayloft and it is such a lovely place to work, full of brilliant and knowledgeable people that care about what they do. It has helped me learn so much more about what I’m seeing when I’m out and about too.
I love good food, adventures with my husband and making or crafting things!
A little more about me
Ask Steph...
What is your favourite plant and why?
There’s so many to choose from! I’ve always loved Peonies and all sorts of wildflowers. Being at Hayloft has really opened my eyes to so many more plants… I’m really enjoying ones with small delicate flowers like lily of the valley or Parahebe at the moment.
What is your favourite style of garden?
What is your favourite season?
Spring, everything is waking up and the lighter nights begin..
If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
What is on the top of your bucket list?
I’d love to do a Red-Panda encounter and there’s quite a few places around the world I’d like to experience.
If you could have dinner with any historical figure, who would it be and why?
Maybe Ansel Adams because he was a landscape photographer and environmentalist during the early to mid-20th century and I’d love to chat about the world then and compare with now. Or maybe Einstein! It would be fascinating to get a glimpse of how is mind worked.
What is your favourite food?
I love Asian food! Thai, Chinese, Japanese…
What is your favourite film?
Again.. there’s too many! I love a film with great music. The Boat that Rocked is a firm favourite.
What is your biggest pet peeve?
Messy eating or eating with your mouth open.
What is your secret talent that nobody knows about?
It’s not really a secret but I’m fairly musical. I can play piano!
If you could do any other job, what would it be and why?
I’d love to work as a photographer for National Geographic.
If you were a colouring pencil, what colour would you be and why?
Green because it’s my fave colour!
If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you'd do?
If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be?
There’s far too many places to choose from… The hot springs in Iceland… Machu Pichu… Trekking in Switzerland.. Paddle boarding in Nevada… A hot tub Log Cabin in Canada..
Where would you go if you were invisible?
I’d probably use it to get into places like gigs and concerts or travel abroad without paying!
What have you done that you are most proud of?
Getting my BA Honors Degree
Describe yourself in three words
Weird, awkward, introverted!
What is your funniest memory whilst working at Hayloft?
I’m a bit too new for that at the moment, I’m sure that will come in time!
If you could give advice to a new starter at Hayloft, what would it be?
Don’t be afraid to ask questions or for help!
