Hometown: Westminster, Colorado

When I started doing hair: 2001

When I started at The Parlour: 2002

What inspires/motivates me in the industry:

My inspiration comes from making people feel good about themselves when they leave my chair. Knowing that I could make a small or big difference in their lives.

What I am happiest doing:

I am happy to have a balance in my life. My career which I absolutely love. My clients that make me laugh, smile and sometimes cry and my beautiful family to come home to.

Additional industry involvement:

I have lots of education in my tool box thanks to The Parlour. I love to work with brides to make their special day as wonderful as it can be.

I have also had the honor of working back stage at Fashion Week in New York beside some incredibly talented Kerestase stylists.

I believe that you can never stop learning new things in this industry. Therefore, I will always continue to learn the latest and greatest in the fashion world.

What I love most about The Parlour:

The thing that I love most about The Parlour is the opportunities they have given me. I never thought it was possible to become a salon owner at such a young age, but they believed in me and here I am 4 and a half years later as a partner in a fast growing successful high end salon.

What else you should know about me:

My career is doing the best hair I can do. My love is meeting incredible people along the way.

It’s impossible to run a business on “good luck”, but when Evelyn called wanting to lead The Parlour Flatirons location, I knew I was a lucky man. Evelyn is everything we can hope for at The Parlour and I’m proud of all the things she’s accomplishing.
