Number of years in the industry?
20 years
Educational accomplishments?
After graduating from the Aveda institute, Minneapolis in 2003, my love and passion for our industry was just beginning to bloom. I dove headfirst into education by receiving my Redken Color/Design certification and becoming a national Redken Artist/Educator in the salon and on the road. It is an honor to help grow hair stylists to their professional goals and dreams. I continue to further my education by attending many classes at the world renowned Redken Exchange in NYC, along with Redken Artist trainings. I have also had the honor of supporting 2 International Redken Symposium teams. Education is so important, and I have found it to be the key to success in our world!

What is your current favorite Redken Product?
It is too hard to pick just one, but currently I am absolutely loving Rewind 06. I love the texture and bounce it give to short sassy haircuts.
Where do you look for inspiration?
I love peaking at Pinterest and Instagram; however, I absolutely gravitate more towards people, places, and things around me.
What is your Favorite Quote?
“What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.” -Buddha
What song would you say sums you up?
Ohh… that’s a tough one. I would say because of my determination to succeed, my positive energy and this constant passion/fire in my soul that’s always burning, it would be a tossup between Tom Petty, I Won’t Back Down & Alicia Keys, Girl on Fire.
What is one thing most people do not know about you?
I am a leap year baby, so technically I am only 9 years old!
Sierra : Hair Artist
Hi, I’m Sierra! My journey with hair started by experimenting on myself. After how amazing I felt turning my own hair into something I love, I knew I wanted to share that feeling and experience. I recently graduated from the Academy of Beauty Professionals. I’m working on growing my skills and becoming a specialist in fun, vivid colors.
