When I was in high school, I loved make-up application. I wanted to become a professional make-up artist, so I went to beauty school. One day, we had a hair cutting contest with our mannequins. Up until that point, it wasn’t that I didn’t like hair. I just never really thought about it much. But that day, I won the cutting contest, and I started to really think about what it would mean to become a hair stylist.

I completed my licensure in 2012, and I began working at Hair & Body Day Spa and Salon here in Gallatin in February 2014. When it transitioned to the current Elite Studios, I asked Jacqui if she wanted to share a suite with me, and we’ve been a team ever since. After working as a sole proprietor for a year, I started to really think about opening my own salon. One day several months later, Jacqui called me out of the blue and said, “I’ve been thinking. I think we could open our own place. What do you think?” So the idea for Evergreen Salon was born. I hope you love what we have built as much as I do. It really does feel like a special place.

I’m originally from Goodlettsville, and I’ve been married to my husband since April 2015. We have two daughters and a shepherd/collie mix named Sandler. I specialize in low maintenance color options, especially balayage and grey blending. I absolutely love helping women transition back to their natural color after years of permanent color.
