Being a native of Cave Creek, I chose to study at some of the best cosmetology schools our state had to offer! I completed the Cosmetology Program at Toni & Guy Hairdressing Academy and the Cosmetology Instructor Program at Avalon School of Cosmetology. I received a 'Postgraduate Instructor Certification' from Vidal Sassoon Academy in Santa Monica, specializing in geometric and precision haircutting. My training at these institutions has given me the ability to fulfill each of my guest's individual styling desires, as well as speak to the importance of continued education within this ever-changing industry.
"I am proud to be part of a team of women who have pioneered health, wellness, and sustainability in the beauty industry. Upon opening our flagship store in 2016, my best-friend / business partner and I discovered how much "green-washing" takes place in our beloved industry. From that moment forward, we vowed to cultivate a work environment that would encompass all of the things we have always wanted out of our workplace; organic, vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and cruelty-free products, a sustainable zero-waste trash situation, a clean-air environment, carbon-neutral energy usage, and lots of plants!
We have collectively been so lucky to grow our little crunchy hippie salon idea into the largest upscale organic salon in the State of Arizona. We could not have done that without the support of our clients and our community! We love ya'll!"
*I specialize in blonding, precision haircutting, and advanced color correction.

"As a Central Phoenix native, I’m proud to live, work, and create in the neighborhood where I grew up. With 20 years of experience in the salon industry, my passion for hair is rooted in the ability to help enhance someones naturally beautiful features. I love that this career is a true creative outlet where art meets science, and every guest is a new canvas.
My career in the hair industry took me from Arizona to New York; where I was able to work on film sets, photoshoots, NY Fashion Week, and behind the chair as a color specialist at one of New York’s most reputable salons. In 2010, I made the shift to organic and sustainable products, prioritizing the health of the hair and scalp while still achieving stunning, personalized results.
Since becoming an Educator and Mentor for Organic Color Systems in 2015, I’ve traveled across the U.S. and abroad—from San Francisco to NYC to London—educating fellow stylists and working on creative editorial shoots. My work emphasizes the science behind hair and color, and I’m especially passionate about ongoing education and helping others master the healthiest ways to achieve beautiful results.
In 2016, I Co-Founded Organic Hair Lab—a dream realized. It’s a space built on sustainability, creativity, and care. I believe in the importance of a full experience. From the moment you walk in to the time you leave I want you to feel relaxed, inspired, and taken care of. Doing hair is a collaboration with my guests. Whether your vision is classic or unconventional, I enjoy bringing it to life.
Outside the salon, you’ll find me camping, hiking, paddle boarding, enjoying live music, and spending time with my husband and our two beloved dogs."
* I specialize in dimensional color, rich brunettes, vibrant reds, low-maintenance layers and a wide range of short styles like barbered fades and soft pixies.

"My mom has been doing nails my entire life... I basically took my first steps in a salon! Growing up, I was always obsessed with watching her create beautiful nails and watching other stylists work with their clients. I loved the idea of working in a salon, so I enrolled in cosmetology school at EVIT a few years after I graduated high school. It was a long 2 years trying to complete school and get my license in the middle of a pandemic! BUT, I made it through and I am so excited to be part of the Organic Hair Lab team! We have created such an amazing community; every day I get to give people the opportunity to see how beautiful they are, while also doing my part in keeping the earth clean. Cosmetology truly is my passion! I'm thankful to be here doing what I love every day!"
*I specialize in vibrant rainbow-shade haircolor, long layer haircuts, and Apres Gel-X with nail art.

Becoming a new mom inspired me to find a career that blended creativity, community, and conscious living. I wanted to support women, build a welcoming space, and contribute to a healthier planet.
At first, I wasn’t sure how all of those pieces could come together, until I remembered my curly hair specialist in Oregon, and how she loved to educate the women around her on switching to nontoxic hair care.That memory planted a seed tht eventually led me to cosmetology school. While there, I was shocked by how much salon waste and chemical exposure is considered "normal." I began seeking out organic alternatives and planning how I could take part in changing the beauty industry. When I found Organic Hair Lab, I couldn’t believe a salon like this actually existed! It’s everything I hoped for and more.
Now, I’m honored to work alongside others who care deeply about people and the planet. I’m excited to bring my artistry of curly and textured hair to this space. I’m passionate about helping clients feel beautiful through clean, organic products and intentional care.
*I specialize in haircolor and curly cuts.

“I have worked in the beauty industry for many years, first as a receptionist for a hair and nail bar. Along the way, I met some amazing people who saw my natural talent and convinced me that I should go to cosmetology school! After attending Penrose Academy, I learned that my love for the beauty industry lies in doing nails! I am passionate about my profession and embrace the opportunity to create beauty and make a positive impact on my clients lives. I have studied the art of nails for many years and continuously strive to give my guests the best they deserve, while maintaining the health of the hands and feet a top priority.
I am so excited to be part of a salon that keeps the community, earth, and people a top priority all while making them look and feel beautiful at the same time! I love doing what I do and I’m thankful to be here!”

Certificate Special Events Management
“ As a Central Phoenix native and recent graduate from Arizona State University’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, my goal is to build a career in the “local events” industry, specifically specializing in digital marketing. I spent a significant portion of my undergrad studies on earning a Certificate in Special Events Management, and have been able to use the education I received from that training to drive forward my focus on social media within the digital space.
Working as Organic Hair Lab’s Social Media Manager and Receptionist, I have been able to funnel my specific skillset into growing their social media following, cultivate interpersonal soft skills, and work with a unique and like-minded customer service base.
Outside of work, you can find me line dancing, attending local events or live music, and spending time with my favorite people and pets! "
