Beauty – New York - Brooklyn

I am a native of Baltimore, Maryland now implanted into New York City. I wanted to be pushed to the limit and be surrounded by creativity and the passion for culture. I originally started doing hair in musical and dance productions in schools and have always loved it; I recently found my way back to it. Discouraged by life and the stereotypes of what I should be, I put it to the back of my mind... but I always found my way back to hair. While being called to choreograph for a hair show, I discovered they had a lack of hairstylists the day of the show, so I jumped in to help. Somehow someone saw the natural talent I had - untrained, raw, and needed to be nurtured. I was offered a full scholarship to attend their hair school at the end of the presentation. (THANK YOU TO ELITIST HAIR ACADEMY) From there I decided to work under people and companies that I could learn and grow from. Taking my background in visual and performing arts and fusing it with my love of hair has pushed me to the artist that I am today and hope to be in the future! Now working as and educator and Head stylist/ Hair replacement specialist at LE METRIC BEAUTY STUDIO in Manhattan, NYC
