About me
My journey started in 2017 when I first began barber school. Hair always gave me a way to express myself without saying a word. My biggest inspirations were my sisters, who loved doing hair, so much so that the love found its way to me. I would spend so much time at the barber shop as a kid that I eventually fell in love with everything about it. My will to keep learning and seek out more will always lead my drive. In this industry you can be anyone you want, and as creative as your mind will allow you to be.

Why I'm here
My goals have always been to perfect my craft, and be the best possible stylist I can be. As my knowledge continues to grow my focus does as well. I would love to share my talent with the world. As an artist I would not only want to be the best for myself, but show up for the newer generation and future professionals of the industry and help them be the very best they can be.
As a Professional in the industry for about 7 years there are many skills I have developed that make me a great candidate for the specific position I am seeking. A little background I am currently a licensed barber and I just recently graduated and became a licensed cosmetologists. I had a great opportunity to go directly back and enroll in the educator program so i did exactly that. As i am loveing my journey as a educator, there are certain things i would love to get my hand in outside of here. I am an educator mon-wed and thurs-sat I am currently still at a barbershop behind the chair. I am looking for a mentor, someone who is willing to take me under their wing with color, cutting and styling and allow me to assist and bring me out of the barbershop setting and more into the salon setting. I have never been late for an appoitment, i work hard and i pick up things fast.
