What started as one salon, became a voice the industry is listening to.

I set out to prove a simple idea: beauty can be clean, conscious, and profitable, all at once. That belief has carried me from my own chair in Warrenton to national magazines, podcasts, and stages.

Everywhere the conversation happens, my mission is the same, to raise the standard and bring more of us along.
