Summary

I am a dedicated stylist with over a decade of experience in fast paced, customer-focused environments. my background is built on a strong work ethic, moving from 24/7 hospitality in Indiana to luxury retail management in westwood, California. I pride myself on being approachable, staying calm under pressure, and helping every person I work with feel confident and heard. I am looking to bring my eye for styling and my 'People -fist' attitude to the LUV Bridal team.

Fun Fact: I was born in July so my zodiac is Cancer, which i think shows in my work, I am naturally intuitive and very empathetic to my client's experiences. Im a loving person who genuinely enjoys being the uplifting part of their day.
