ABOUT ME
How did you get into hair?
I remember from as early as grade one that there was something about the hair Industry and salons that I loved. I loved the smell, the social aspect & artistic vibes. I would do my dolls’ & friends’ hair all the time so it was no shock to my family when I finished high school & went straight into hair school.
What do you love about the hair industry?
The thing I love the most about being a hairdresser is helping my clients feel and look their best. I get to do the job I love while building strong relationship with my clients. Hair is worn every single day. Therefore it should always make a person feel beautiful and confident. I always strive to make every salon guest feel their very best and have great salon experience.
What kind of hair are you known for?
Balayage & hair painting. Vidal Sassoon cutting trained & lover of blow outs!
What foods can't you live without?
I love Mexican foods!
What songs/ artists do you have on repeat?
Post Malone, J cole & basically anything hip hop from the 90’s
What is your personal style?
Casual with a bit of an edgy flair.
How do you spend your downtime?
Working out at Orangetheory (love that place), soaking in the bath (seriously I’m addicted) or hanging out at my parents cabin at the lake. (Love paddle boarding)
What is your fav local business?
The Brow Babe & Congress (yummmm)
Do you have any recommended reading or watching?
The Compound Effect.
Any past/future travel plans?
I traveled & lived in Australia for a year and New Zealand for a month. I lived and worked as a stylist in Banff for over 5 years. I love getting away in the winter to warmer climates.
Fav quote or motto?
Love what you do & do what you love.
Fun fact?
I broke the same wrist twice, once snowboarding and once tubing behind a boat. Broke my foot attempting a fancy dance move on the street and dislocated my knee on the dance floor. Each of these times I was having a lot of fun.
