About me
I am honored to have over sixteen years of experience behind the chair and nearly as long empowering others in the industry, I bring a passion for both artistry and education to everything I do. I’ve proudly owned and operated my salon for 11 years, creating a space where creativity, growth, and client care thrive.
As a color and curls specialist, I focus on helping clients and professionals alike embrace texture, dimension, and healthy hair. My love for education led me to become an educator 9 years ago—and today, I’m honored to serve on the L’ANZA Healing Haircare Pro Team.
I helped develop and currently teach L’ANZA Curl Academy, where we equip stylists with the skills and confidence to work with all curl types through modern techniques, science-backed knowledge, and inclusive practices.
My work is rooted in the belief that great hair is accessible with education. I’m here to help beauty professionals build sustainable, inspired careers—and to keep evolving alongside this incredible industry.
Education
Why I'm here
I’m here to connect with beauty professionals who believe in growth, and grit. Whether you’re behind the chair, leading a team, or stepping into education, I want to be part of the conversations that move our industry forward.
I believe in sharing what I’ve learned From salon ownership to texture education to navigating brand partnerships, and dimensional color, so others can find their own version of success without burning out. If you’re passionate about color, cutting, curls, education, or evolving your career with purpose, we’re already speaking the same language.
