Owner & Specialty Stylist of 14+ years

To be a stylist you have to be a little slice of crazy and a whole lot of creative. It’s not every day in most industries that you have no idea what the day will hold but my favorite of all is I get to have a personal relationship with each person in my chair. How cool is that?!

I started cosmetology 14+ years ago with no idea the passion I would carry for this industry. Also, I never imagined having a team full of talented and hardworking women. It’s still strange to have my team call me their “Boss.” I don’t walk around singing Kelis’ “Bossy” but I would call myself a leader! Creating a salon team proved to be way harder than I ever thought but I can say I have the best team ever. Once you step foot in our salon you will be surprised to see only 8 stylists but I’ve always wanted a smaller group. It’s more of a family with us and we are able to really bond with each other. I started this salon to give stylists an opportunity to make a career for themselves and we have met our goals and beyond.

As for my personal life, what makes my heart beat is my family. We are a wild and crazy family of 6. No, I didn’t birth all of them just 2. I have 2 beautiful redheaded daughters, one statuesque and creative stepdaughter, and a highly motivated sportaholic stepson. I’m married to one incredible husband Mark, who has supported and helped create Indie Blue alongside me. Saying I’m lucky to have this family to call my own is an understatement.

As a stylist behind the chair, my passion is Happy & Healthy hair PERIOD. I can bring you to the color or cut of your dreams but I will always communicate how to keep it healthy in the process. I am a lover of all the colors from Red to Honey Blonde, lived in Neutrals and Rich Browns. I’m always up for a challenge behind the chair even if it’s just getting back to natural. Know that whatever your goal is I will listen to your needs and work as a team with you to get the result you’re looking for.

As a former educator at the Paul Mitchell Cosmetology School, I find education key to being successful. I’ve traveled all over to learn from Balayage Specialists, Vivid Color Creators, Blonding and Foiling Experts, and Cutting Masters. I’ve seen some of the best in my adventures of hair and can’t wait to transform your hair world.

I have so many wonderful education adventures since 2006 that I can’t even name them all. I’ve seen countless high-caliber educators over the years and still want to see so many more. I was even an educator for the Paul Mitchell school in 2011. Education is what I feel is most important in our industry to adapt and evolve in our career.
