She/Her • Doing Hair Since 2010


When did you know you wanted to do hair? 

The classic childhood story of cutting my Barbie’s hair, and sitting in my room for hours as a teenager messing with my hair and makeup.

What is your favorite service to provide?

Lived in hair. I love creating something that looks thoughtfully blended that you’ll be able to live in for a while and have it still remain looking intentional and fresh.

I love creating pockets of depth and ribbons of light, whether that be adding dimension and brightness to a blonde or painting a subtle shade shift in brunettes.

What service are you technically the best at?

Balayage & highlighting. I love taking a canvas and enhancing it. Knowing where to add depth to reflect light, brightening up around the face to create a natural glow, and creating a custom tone that suites your complexion and compliments your natural hair.

What service do you wish you could do more of?

Lived in coloring and texturized haircutting. I think adding both to a single service really allows the hair to flow naturally, catching light and shifting movement. Both complement each other well and both enhance the natural state of your color/hair texture.

Texture in cutting is crucial to me, it allows the hair to have soft movement that can easily be worn as a wash and go.

When meeting a new client, what steps do you take to make sure they end up with a result they love?

Listening to your individual needs and desired outcome is a must. I want to know what your hair routine is like, what products you use to achieve the look you want as well as your color inspiration.

Bring in pictures and we can go through them together. I want to create something for you that is manageable and effortless. We’ll work together to get you there.

What has been your career high?

Connecting with people over the years and hearing their life stories, all while making them feel more like themselves by creating art.

What do you do in your free time?

Reading. If you sit in my chair and tell me you read fantasy (specifically SJM and Fourth Wing) watch out. I won’t stop.

I love taking care of our home and thrifting, antiquing, decorating. Spending time with my husband and our cat and traveling/adventuring. I’m always up for a new cozy town and a local coffee shop. It truly is in the little things.

What is the hair care product you can’t live without?

Texturing spray & a nourishing hair mask.

What is your daily hair routine?

It’s pretty simple. I shift between adding some loose waves for a textured laid back look, or simply just throwing in some texture spray to create subtle movement.
