Services Provider: Level 4

Location: Woodinville

Elle Marie Experience: I started at Elle Marie Hair Studio while I was in Cosmetology school, working at the front desk. After graduating school, I worked my way through Elle Marie’s associate program where I assisted senior stylists and gained so much knowledge and newfound skills! Since January 2021, I have been a full time stylist at the Woodinville location and grew an incredible clientele! I love my Woodinville Elle Marie family!

Free Time Favorites: I most enjoy spending days off with family and friends, baking sweets, mini golfing or going to the movies! I also love lazy days every once in awhile to catch up on naps and all the good shows!
