  I opened bottega March of 2009. I have spent a decade in this industry. I am a real "hair dork," and have flown coast to coast to attend shows, seminars and trainings of all sorts. I love a scenic way of life and believe in artful living. keeping a good mix of progress, and past.

  I have been in love with hair for as long as I can remember. Hair being my first love, I have been on a never ending quest for years, interested in perfecting my craft and becoming the best Stylist that I can be. I joined the Bottega family in April of 2011 and consider myself lucky to be part of such a talented team. My only goal, from the moment you sit in my chair, is to make you feel beautiful.
  I am also the proud owner of the worlds smartest and most amazing Chocolate Labrador; Lindor. Together, she and I plan to take over the world!

  I began with a love for makeup and finishing hair, and a love for art and beauty. I have to say I am proud of who I became; a confident, well designed hairstylist. I attended Hatfields Cosmotology School and numerous color, cutting, and styling classes. Including Paul Mitchell, Goldwell, Daviness and Kevin Murphy. I have been lucky enough to work with some amazing talents in this industry as an assistant, and now as a hairstylist at bottega. I have been given a greater knowledge and a sharp skill in haircutting, color services, waxing, Brazilian blowouts, up-styling for special occasions, and makeup applications. My main focus is the detail in my work and to support my client in understanding how to get that "Salon look" at home with the right tools, products and instruction.

  I moved to Raleigh, North Carolina from Massachusetts to go to school at Paul Mitchell. I have a love for color and styling beautiful hair! I enjoy getting to know each client, as well as being a great listener and a caring person. I love making people feel beautiful and for them to see the best version of themselves.

  My passion for hair styling and makeup artistry began in my childhood in the dance world. As I got older, I was the friend who would happily do your cut or color in her kitchen for a few bucks. In 2011, after joining the Bottega team at the front desk, I decided this was something I wanted in my life everyday. I love to help people feel like the very best version of themselves. I feel incredibly lucky to be a part of the talented, creative, caring, nurturing family at Bottega. Whether you're in need of a simple trim or you're interested in trying a totally different look, I would love to help you reach your goals.
