About me

I do short cuts, textured cuts, bobs, longer stuff, all of it. Some people think I only do men's hair because the internet shows you mullets all day, but I promise I cut everything and genuinely like doing it.

What you won't get: a 20-minute consultation about who you want to become, a hard part you didn't ask for, or me pretending the haircut is more advanced than it is. What you will get: someone who pays attention, does the work, and sends you out looking better than when you walked in. That's the whole pitch.

Recently relocated from Nashville to Eugene — yes, I'm the one with the slight southern thing going on — and now taking new clients at Moss Hair Studio.

Why I'm here

Stylists: you can relax. You don't have to have a signature technique with a trademarked name. You don't have to fog-machine your way through a class to prove you're legit. You're allowed to just be good at the fundamentals and go home at a reasonable hour.

I've taught on stages across the country and consulted for brands way bigger than me, and the thing I keep coming back to is this: the best education isn't the flashiest. It's the clearest. Good hair comes from solid fundamentals, paying attention, and not overthinking it.

So that's why I'm here. To remind everybody — including myself — that it's just hair. Take it seriously. Just don't take it that seriously.

Boring, right? Exactly.
