Started my hairdresser career in 2008 after graduating from Coba Academy in Orange, CA. Built my foundation by working in renowned salons across Southern California, from Hollywood and Los Angeles to Irvine and Orange County, honing my skills in color, cutting, and styling a diverse clientele. This wide- ranging experience provided a strong base that later led to international opportunities in Qatar and the UAE.
