I love what I do... I get to make the world a more beautiful place...one person at a time!!  I have so much fun "playing" with hair color at the salon. It is my specialty!! I am a family oriented person, with lots of life experiences that makes me a very "relatable" person to everyone. I LOVE education!! I believe in constantly updating my techniques and skills with frequent classes and seminars. I am always seeking out the newest tools, products, and trends to share with my salon guests. The beauty industry is always evolving, and it my goal to personally uphold a high level of professionalism for myself, as well as the entire team at Salon Brillaré!
