They say if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. I was introduced to this industry 17 years ago, and been living the dream ever since. I graduated from Tricoci University in 2006, and worked with the salon while also venturing out into body painting, make up, and airbrush make up with Mario Ink. I soon became an instructor with AirBrush Academy, and worked full time as a hair stylist and make up artist at Junior Hair Design. While there, I was offered some AMAZING opportunities. I currently travel all over the US, working with country singer Candi Carpenter, Mehron, Hooters, and NFL. I guess you can say I'm a busy girl! A defining moment for me, was walking onto the field for Super Bowl, ALL ACCESS!
With the support of my loved ones, I took the next step into becoming a business owner, and the rest is history. Aside from saving the world, one beauty at a time, I enjoy the simple pleasures of life like lattes, candles, and my fur babies. To say I love Disney is an understatement. Other than behind the chair, there is no other happiest place on earth for me then right in front of the castle!
I graduated from Pivot Point Academy in 2016, and have the opportunity to work with Hooters at their annual Swim Suit Pageant, as well as booking private clients and traveling. Everyday I strive to build my confidence and soak in any education that I can. Growing up, I was always inspired by anything that let me express my creativity. When introduced to the art of styling I fell in love with the beauty industry instantly. There are no limits to what you can do when it comes to being a stylist. There is always something new and exciting to learn about, and it’s always been my passion to not only learn the insides and outs of being a stylist, but being able to teach other stylists like myself one day. When I was presented with the opportunity to be able to be a business owner, I jump at the chance to broaden my career even more.
When I’m not behind the chair you can find me spending time with my beautiful baby girl, journaling, or catching a good movie. Looking forward to having you in my chair!
