I was born and raised in Stamford, Connecticut. I grew up getting my hair done by my cousin in all styles, especially braids, until they moved away. With no other person around to style my hair, I took the initiative to learn the skill. This paved the way for me to experiment with numerous hairstyles and braids, one that I grew to love the most.

In high school, I gained confidence in my craft and began to get noticed. My classmates started to ask for my hairstyling services and even encouraged me to pursue cosmetology school. Soon after graduating high school, I graduated from Paul Mitchell The School and got my cosmetology license in 2016. Continuing my journey, in 2017, I graduated from MUD, Make-Up Designory. I got my fashion, film & television, multimedia, and master (SFX) Make-Up certification. Simultaneously I decided to go back to school for my bachelor’s degree. Throughout the years, Blunt x Bold Lounge was born.

Along the way, I realized I also had a passion for organization and being a resource to others. Next thing you know, Ground Gracefully was born. I came up with a way to help others become more organized by creating simple, easy systems to better time manage themselves, their lives, and families. I hope to develop strategies, stationery items, and tutorials on how to use applications more efficiently to help someone who might feel overwhelmed with so much.
