About me

I am originally from Dallas and moved to New York to attend Parsons School of Design, where I studied the business side of fashion. I am naturally personable and genuinely enjoy building meaningful connections with others, while maintaining a warm, polished presence.

Growing up, spending time in a hair salon was always one of my favorite experiences. I also loved going to places like Neiman Marcus with my mom - moments that shaped my appreciation for thoughtful service and elevated client care. I have always been drawn to the hair and beauty industry, and I am especially inspired by environments that value attention to detail and a high level of hospitality.

I am currently seeking a role where I can bring my professionalism, strong communication skills, and genuine passion for client service to a team that prioritizes quality and care.

Why I'm here

I am really interested in this role because I am naturally very social and truly enjoy meeting new people and building connections. In my previous position at the front desk at Equinox, I loved being the first point of contact. I took pride in representing the Equinox brand - welcoming clients, helping them feel comfortable, and setting a positive tone for their experience.

I eventually left Equinox to focus on completing my degree, but that role confirmed how much I enjoy working directly with people. I am excited to find a similar environment again, and a salon feels like the perfect fit. I have always been enthusiastic about the hair and beauty industry; being in that space and around that energy feels natural to me.

I would love to be part of a team that creates memorable moments for its clients and contributes to an environment where people feel cared for and welcomed.
