Here’s a little bit about me —

My hair journey started in 2019 at Paul Mitchell Portland. After graduating at the start of the pandemic in 2020, I eagerly waited for salons to reopen + when they finally did, I then made my way into the hair industry. I started off as an apprentice under a color specialist + then went fully independent, opening my own studio salon in early 2021. 

While working independently, I fell in love with balayage + lived-in color, dedicating myself to creating effortless, dimensional looks that last. After 3 amazing years in my studio, I decided to relocate + continue my career as an independent stylist at Wild Collective Salon where I further expanded my experience + knowledge behind the chair.

In 2025, I decided to step away from the salon to invest in both myself + my craft. During my time away, I continued my education, refined my techniques, explored new color methods + returned with a fresh perspective + an even greater passion for creating beautiful, low-maintenance hair. 

Now, I'm excited to announce my return to the chair! I will be back at Wild Collective Salon in Tualatin as an independent stylist. I'm excited to welcome both new + returning clients into my chair.

I can't wait to see you + hope to have you in my chair soon!
