I started in this industry at the age of seventeen, my senior year of high school. Since I was a child I was always intrigued and excited about the beauty business. I have studied at some of the top advanced schools including: Pivot Point International – Chicago, Illinois and Wayne Grund Academy–Astashiwa, Canada.
I have also studied with top educators and stylists including Bes Regal Italian hair color, Redken, Rusk, Wella and Matrix, just to name a few.
A Brazilian Keratin Smoothing treatment is another area that I have been certified in. The process smooths and relaxes textured or frizzy hair. In Florida with the humidity and heat the Keratin process will tame your hair. We only use Formaldehyde free products in our salon.
My love for the business and creativity has shaped who I am. My salon is not a place to work, but a home away from home. The salon is professional AND always friendly. I take pride in understanding facial shapes, features, eye color and skin tone to create the very best style and color for each of my clients. I’m passionate about all phases of hair. However, color and cutting have always been my expertise. I can now also add smoothing and straightening treatments as well.
You will find professional stylists in our salon with a variety of languages spoken including English, Italian and Russian. Men, Women and children are always welcome in our salon. We have been at our current location in Paradise Plaza for the past 12 ½ years. My business partner Franco Busillo and I have work side-by-side for the past 30 years.
Besides living and working here in Sarasota, I enjoy boating, golfing, dancing and exercise. Sertoma Service Club of Sarasota and Greater Sarasota Woman’s Golf Association (GSWGA) are a couple of clubs that I have been involved with. Hope Kids
is another great organization I have volunteered with, I believe you should always give back to the community that gives you so much!
