Before stepping into the beauty industry, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Human Biology from Western Oregon University. My initial career aspirations were focused on becoming a police officer and eventually a homicide detective. However, after careful reflection and a supportive nudge from my husband Jared, I discovered a passion for the artistry and creativity within the beauty industry.

In pursuit of this new path, I completed my education in Hair Design and Esthetics at Beau Monde Academy of Cosmetology in Portland, Oregon, and officially began living a dream I hadn’t realized was possible.

At Style Me PDX, I specialize in a variety of services, including women’s haircuts and color, lash extensions, full-body waxing, and special event hair and makeup for weddings and photoshoots. Over the years, I have built a thriving bridal company, now home to a talented team of 8 accomplished stylists. As a leader, my mission is to educate, empower, and uplift the incredible women around me—helping them recognize and harness their unique skills and talents. Our team’s collective goal is to ensure every bride feels and looks her absolute best on one of the most significant days of her life. Beyond delivering exceptional artistry, we are committed to creating a positive and seamless experience for brides and their loved ones on their wedding day. I take immense pride in our team’s reputation for professionalism, artistry, and excellence, which has earned us recognition as one of the most preferred hair and makeup vendors in the Pacific Northwest.
