Meet the Team
Bao-Tram started Emerald City Flowers because she is passionate about creating beauty and community.
As a dreamer and doer, becoming an entrepreneur felt second nature to Bao-Tram. Before starting Emerald City Flowers, Bao-Tram worked in social impact and philanthropy for over a decade. What started out as a creative outlet during the COVID-19 pandemic became an awarding-winning and published floral design studio. Through floral design, Bao-Tram feels honored to walk with people during some of the most important moments in their lives.

While she designs digitally by day as a UX designer, Tiffany loves creating beauty in the physical world with flowers. She fell in love with floral design and finds joy in contributing to someone’s special day.
