About Me
I love the artistic element of being a hair stylist as well as the scientific side of what we do. And I love being able to make a difference – big or small – in a fellow human’s life.
I studied at the Paul Mitchell School, and I became licensed in Tennessee in 2008. After working at Germantown Day Spa in Memphis for some time, I moved back home to Chattanooga, Tenn., where I worked at Hair-a-go-go, The Hair Lounge, and Dream Hair Studio. In March 2018 I joined the team at Salon 30A in downtown Chattanooga.
In July 2020 I opened my own private studio called Honey & Ash at Sola Salons 2 Northshore. Having my own studio allows me to more easily chat with my clients and answer their hair-related questions, providing hands-on tutorials for styling, in a quiet, comfortable space. It also meets my needs with regard to my fragrance sensitivities; by limiting my exposure to hair products that trigger migraines for me, I’m better able to serve everyone to the best of my ability.
I continue to seek educational opportunities throughout each year. Some of my previous trainings are french cutting courses at Jamison Shaw Hairdressers in Atlanta; balayage training at Siggers Salon in Atlanta; various color classes at Parlour & Juke in Nashville; dry haircutting techniques with Mike Karg, celebrity stylist and educator; and online courses in color, cut, and style techniques from 901 Salon/Beauty Coach as well as up-do styling from Heather Chapman Hair.
