tell us about your background as a stylist?

I’ve been doing hair since 2002. I went to Lake Forest Beauty College and started going to as many classes as I could to forward my education, culminating in becoming an associate with Paul Mitchell for few years. I crave knowledge and pushing the limits, as well as knowing the right cut and color for the right person. 

what makes you smile?

Being in the ocean surfing- either long boarding Doheny or taking my short board out to T-street or Oceanside

My husband- why would I have dinner with anyone else??
Favorite saying or quote: “Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage”

what brought you to the house salon?

I decided to come to the house salon for a tour. Leighanna was extremely warm and welcoming. The salon looked like a place that I had been dreaming to find. I immediately felt at home and love the look and soul of this place…. And of course the shampoo bowls.
