I never planned on becoming a hairstylist. I actually went to school for finance and earned a full-ride scholarship to study it. But hair has always been part of my life—my dad was the go-to hairdresser in our neighborhood, and I grew up watching him work. I didn’t realize it at the time, but all those moments spent in his shop stuck with me. When I finally decided to follow my gut and get my license, it felt like I was exactly where I was meant to be.

 

Once I got into the industry, I wanted to learn everything I could. I trained with top educators, studied techniques in London and New York, and pushed myself to refine every detail of my work. But what’s mattered most has been the time behind the chair—learning what makes someone feel good, what makes color look effortless, and how to create hair that looks just as good months later as it does on day one.

 

I specialize in lived-in color, balayage, and natural highlights—the kind of hair that blends seamlessly and grows out beautifully. There’s nothing better than that moment when someone sees their hair in the mirror and really loves it. That’s why I do what I do.

 

Beyond the salon, my world revolves around my family. My husband and kids keep me grounded, and they remind me why this work matters so much. Hair is about more than looking good—it’s about feeling like yourself, feeling confident, and taking time for you. Whether it’s my clients in the chair or the stylists I mentor, my goal is the same: to help people feel their best.
