I’ve been working as a hair stylist for over 10 years in the industry after graduating from the Paul Mitchell school of cosmetology in San Francisco.  I am very passionate about the creative and artistic aspect of styling hair but also love having the opportunity to brighten someone’s day.  In my work as a hairdresser, I find that connecting with my client is just as important as their final look and how they feel when they walk out the door.  I enjoy doing all different types of hair services and love learning as much as I can with advanced education in order to better my craft. Color, texture and design is something I see all around me and inspires me to keep doing what I love to do.

Each client’s hair color and texture inspires me to create a unique look, that they’ll love and suits their lifestyle. My passion for creativity collaborates fantastically with my razor sharp attention to detail, in the realm of hair. Sharing techniques for proper hair care, as well as, fun easy ways to style your look at home, come free of charge with every appointment! I love working as a stylist and strive to deliver a relaxing experience, leaving y’all feeling refreshed, awesome, and ready to conquer all!

I’ve been on a personal journey of conscious healing and awakening for 25 years and a certified healing bodyworker for 24 years. This deepens my understanding, sensitivity and compassion for others.
My passion is in sharing the terrain I have traversed thru this work. I have extensive education and certified training. My work is my life’s work. My own path of healing and transformation have led me to the realization that we all have the potential to heal and awaken, I offer guidance in that process. We all are able to to open our hearts, and experience the truth of who we are in wholeness and oneness. I explore all of this with you through the body.
The body holds every experience and memory, positive and negative, within every cell. Our lives are a reflection of this. Illness, disease and pain are an expression of this. Our body is always showing us where we need to heal, it’s an invitation to go deeper and find true freedom.
I share this journey with you.

Hair has always been the reason for my being, it just makes sense to me, growing up my mother was a stylist so I just knew creating beautiful/fun Hair is what I was meant to do. I have embarked on this journey as a multicultural stylist stepping outside the norm to find what really works by paying attention to needs and wants when it comes to curly hair by dissecting what doesn’t work and why? But my journey goes beyond just curly hair I do the same with all textured. I find ways to mix colors to fit all different personalities and cuts to fit different lifestyles whether it someone looking for a change or someone looking for something fun & playful but still simple my sharp attention to detail and my perfectionist ways always takes me there.
