Who are your muses? Julia Roberts because I love Pretty Woman. Oprah because she’s Oprah!

What are your luxury indulgences? Meditating on the beach and watching the sunrise really helps to center me and brings joy to my day.

A career highlight: I was hired as Alterna’s Global Education Manager and transitioned from being a full-time behind-the-chair stylist to an in-house position for a major global haircare brand.
