I was inspired to do hair when…

I was younger I always changed up my hair color and experimented in my kitchen with my mom. After finishing college and feeling unfulfilled at my job, I decided to revisit the idea of doing hair. I attended cosmetology school and was surrounded by creative people like myself which cemented the idea that this is the path for me.

When I’m not at Artform…

Spending time with my friends and family. Playing my Nintendo switch, going to concerts or learning new crafts.
