​When 2020 hit, I realized I wanted to be able to support my clients in a more meaningful way— so I went back to OSU and finished my Bachelor’s in Psychology. I moved to Portland in 2022 to work in the social services field, where I learned that computers and clicking buttons... Not for me. I thrive when I am creating space and talking with people... just not behind a desk.​

​

So in 2023, I jumped at the chcance to teach at a beauty school. I firmly believe that information sharing and education is key to us becoming stronger as a community. (stronger by being interconnected). 

​​

Now in 2025–  I am back behind the chair in Portland. I truly missed building connections and helping people feel more like themselves. The person and the barber I am today has been influenced by every person who has sat in my chair or shared thier experince with me. I am excited to meet you and support you in your journey.
