RISING STAR<br />

WHY DID YOU<br />

WANT TO BE A<br />

HAIRDRESSER?<br />

I tried<br />

working behind<br />

a desk but I found<br />

it soul destroying.<br />

I realised pretty<br />

quickly that if<br />

I pursued a<br />

creative career,<br />

I could do<br />

something I love<br />

and make a living.<br />

WHAT HAVE BEEN YOUR HIGHLIGHTS SO FAR?<br />

2017 was a career highlight for me!<br />

Getting the chance to be mentored<br />

by Mark Leeson, winning Gold in the<br />

New Talent category for the Stylists’<br />

Favourite award at Goldwell Global Zoom in<br />

Barcelona, then being recognised locally as<br />

Colour Technician of the Year at the JP South<br />

Hair and Beauty Awards in Brighton. I also<br />

had the opportunity to appear on stage with my<br />

boss, Tony Wood, and Beverly C for Goldwell,<br />

that was definitely a highlight! I’m also grateful<br />

to be involved in Lee Stafford<br />

Education, training to be<br />

an educator to pass on a<br />

high standard of NVQlevel<br />

teaching, and<br />

assisting in training<br />

college lecturers.<br />

WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 10 YEARS?<br />

I will endeavour to go from strength to<br />

strength! In an ideal world, I would love to<br />

be producing more session work and even<br />

art directing and eventually leading my<br />

own creative team.<br />

WHAT WOULD BE YOUR DREAM HAIRDRESSING GIG?<br />

My all-time inspiration is Alexander<br />

McQueen – to work for his legacy, on shoots<br />

or shows, would be incredible.
