About me

I’m a licensed cosmetologist with 13+ years of experience in the beauty industry, specializing in blonding, lived-in color, extensions, and customized color. I’ve spent my career both behind the chair and in education, including several years as a cosmetology instructor.

I love helping people understand the “why” behind what they’re doing and making education feel approachable instead of overwhelming. Behind the chair, I’m big on consultations, creating realistic plans for my clients, and continuing to learn as techniques, trends, and products evolve.

One of my favorite parts of this industry is that there is always something new to learn — and something new to teach. I love connecting with other stylists, sharing what I’ve learned throughout my career, and helping other beauty professionals feel more confident in their craft.

Why I'm here

I’m here because I genuinely love this industry and everything there is to learn within it. I’ve been behind the chair for over a decade and have also spent several years as a cosmetology instructor, so education has always been a huge part of who I am as a stylist.

I specialize in blonding, color and extensions, and I love creating transformations that make people feel good about themselves. I’m always looking for ways to grow, learn new techniques, connect with other stylists and share what I’ve learned along the way. I truly believe you can always learn something new, no matter how long you’ve been doing hair.
