HOW WOULD YOU BEST DESCRIBE THE TECHNIQUES OR SERVICES THAT YOU SPECIALIZE IN AND ARE BEST KNOWN FOR?

I’m best known for creating bold, transformative color work—especially dimensional lived-in looks, vivid blends, and seamless color melts that turn heads. My signature techniques combine artistic freedom with precision, always tailored to each client’s personality and lifestyle. Whether I’m working behind the chair, on stage, or in front of the camera, I bring an intuitive, fearless approach to hair that celebrates self-expression and authenticity. And above all, I prioritize hair health—because beautiful hair starts from a strong foundation.

MAJOR MILESTONES: YOUR AWARDS, ACCOLADES, AND SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS IN THE INDUSTRY…

  • Named to Modern Salon’s Top 100 Stylists: Recognized as one of the top influencers in the beauty industry.
  • Behind the Chair #ONESHOT Hair Awards: Multiple nominations and wins celebrating excellence in hair artistry and social media presence.
  • Featured in Allure, Cosmopolitan, and Beauty Launchpad: Editorial spotlights for trendsetting color work and industry innovation.

ONE PRO TIP EVERY STYLIST SHOULD KNOW…

Always prioritize the consultation—it’s the foundation of every great transformation. Listening with intention and aligning on expectations not only builds trust, but it sets you up to deliver results that truly resonate with your client.

CAREER HIGHLIGHT OR PROUDEST MOMENT…

One of my proudest achievements was becoming Joico’s Global Brand Ambassador. It was a full-circle moment—proof that staying true to my vision, creativity, and hustle could lead to partnerships rooted in mutual respect. But beyond the titles, the real highlight has been connecting with other artists around the world, sharing my journey, and seeing how it inspires them to step into their own power.

IF YOU WEREN’T A HAIRSTYLIST, WHAT WOULD YOU BE?

If I weren’t a hairstylist, I’d still be creating—probably as an artist or designer. I’ve always been drawn to color, texture, and storytelling, so whether it’s through fashion, painting, or even interior design, I’d find a way to express emotion visually. I live for transformation and impact, no matter the medium.

ONE PLACE IN THE WORLD YOU’D LOVE TO DO HAIR FOR A DAY:

I’d love to do hair in Tokyo for a day. The fashion, the culture, the fearless self-expression—it’s a city that celebrates individuality, which is exactly what I stand for. I’d be so inspired by the bold street style and innovative beauty trends. It would be the ultimate creative playground.
