Jenna Kirby

My name is Jenna Kirby, and I am 26 years old. I have lived in Nashville almost my whole life, minus the years I spent at the University of Tennessee getting a music degree. I have played piano and sang since I was 6 years old, and have always enjoyed the creative arts. The job I had after college doing music full time was very unfulfilling and draining. I realized that I loved playing, just not as my full time job. I loved the social aspect as well, with meeting new people and getting to be relational. When I was looking for new jobs, I wanted to find something where I could still be relational with people, be creative and have artistic autonomy and expression. When I toured Aveda, I was so in awe and knew it was the right path for me. When I started school, I fell in love with doing hair. It had been a challenging and exciting journey, and I have realized why I love doing it so much. Teaching others how to care for themselves by caring for their hair is so important to me. Completing a color service or haircut that is executed well makes me feel like a million dollars. I want to continue to express myself through cosmetology and continue helping people feel beautiful and taken care of.
