Donovan Boyer
Scottsdale,Arizona
Summary
Hello, my name is Donovan and it is very nice to meet you! I am currently looking to see what’s next in my journey - wether it’s hair, makeup, music, fashion, or what not, I am hoping to showcase my skills and strengths as a creative. I have been in hospitality for the past few years, bartending in nightclubs and music venues for the majority of that time. As of September 2024 I have my hairstylist license and I absolutely love doing hair. I have many hobbies, and I’m hoping I can stop hiding from the skills I know I have and to put them confidently on display. I am enthusiastic about the things I’m passionate about, I am courageous and eager to try new things, I am open minded and ready to learn, and I can stay positive even through the worst.
