Why I'm here

I am here seeking the opportunity for the Redken artist Mentorship program in Hair Color.

I became a Redken Artist because I was inspired by the passion and energy of the educators who came before me, and in that moment, I knew I wanted to lead and inspire other stylists the same way. I connect with attendees by being relatable and true to who I am, and I’m committed to never stopping my growth. I don’t know everything—but I’m driven to learn as much as I can. This mentorship is another step that will help me keep raising the bar, both personally and professionally.
