Growing up surrounded by the hair industry has always fascinated me. My sister inspired me to chase my dream of becoming a cosmetologist as this is the career path, she chose from the age of 18. I enrolled and attended Mitchell’s Academy and graduated in 2022. I have been exposed to a vast array of skills and have focused on perfecting my techniques and skill set. I am so excited to be on board at Panache Hair & Body Loft and look forward to increasing my knowledge from my fellow peers. I am focusing on becoming a color expert and plan to exceed this goal and more!
