Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? -Mary Oliver
I have been doing hair since 1996, and my career has taken me everywhere—from all types of salons to fashion week, editorial, weddings, private clients, even a traveling braid bar in the Hamptons. I was a wild freelancer, saying yes to it all.
Since 2017, Bloom has been my home. Today my focus is healthy hair and scalp, and creating a shape that feels authentically you. I approach every appointment with a thoughtful consultation and offer restorative head spa treatments designed to reset the scalp and relieve tension — the foundation for healthy hair. My talent for custom styles has earned me features on Vogue.com and Allure as one of NYC's top stylists.
When I'm not behind the chair, I love to travel (38 countries and counting), and when I'm home, I stay curious exploring all five boroughs. Yoga and movement keep me grounded and present. Both shape the experience I create in the chair.
