My journey in the beauty industry began at Aveda Institute in St. Petersburg, Florida, where I developed a strong foundation in the art and craft of hair. From there, I moved to New York City to pursue a full-time career as a hairstylist, spending more than three years training and leading events alongside some of the industry’s sought after artists in cutting, color, men’s grooming, and editorial styling. 

It was during those years that I fell in love with creating beautiful, effortless hair; the soft, dimensional color, movement, and voluminous layers inspired by the iconic Victoria’s Secret look. I eventually brought my training to a growing salon and barbershop in Brooklyn, where I planted my roots and spent more than eight years behind the chair refining my craft and building meaningful relationships with my clients.
