Since 1987, I have been dedicated to making people feel their best, this has been a priority. Hairdressing was the starting point, but a deeper love for skincare was soon discovered. This passion has guided my career, from helping clients achieve their skin care goals to sculpting the perfect set of eyebrows. The most rewarding part of the work is the relationships that have been built. Clients are more than appointments—many have become like family over the 35+ years in the industry. This has cultivated a deep commitment to providing personal, long-term care. I am grateful to share the days with my work family at Escapade Salon and Boutique, thanks to fantastic leadership and an incredible team. Doing the work is a true joy.
