About (request update)

Licensed cosmetologist and current Business Management student at SC State University, I bring hands-on experience in beauty services and leadership. As Miss Freshman on the Royal Court and a student-athlete on scholarship for Track & Field, I’ve developed strong time management, teamwork, and communication skills. I also have two years of teaching experience at Rocky Creek Missionary Baptist Church, working with children from newborns to middle school. My long-term goal is to open an all-service salon that empowers beauty professionals and uplifts the community.

Current Whereabouts:

I’m currently focused on growing my skills in business management and entrepreneurship while staying active in leadership and campus life at SC State University. I’m also working on expanding my cosmetology services, exploring remote beauty industry opportunities, and gaining experience in teaching and mentoring youth. My passion is combining creativity with purpose—whether it’s in the salon, classroom, or community.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

My life and professional aspirations center around building a successful all-service salon that not only provides beauty services but also serves as a space for mentorship, empowerment, and entrepreneurship—especially for young women. I aim to use my background in business and cosmetology to create job opportunities, offer training, and give back to my community. Personally, I strive to live a life rooted in faith, purpose, and impact—growing as a leader, uplifting others, and turning my passions into platforms for change.
