I’ve been fascinated by hair and style from an early age. In my home country of Nicaragua I styled hair for my family and friends.

I moved to the beautiful Galician city of Vigo in Spain where my fascination turned into education. I attended the Revlon Academy, later moving to the UK to pursue my dream of giving people the hair they deserve.

In London, I was lucky enough to be accepted at the prestigious Aveda salon in Covent Garden. Starting as a barber, I also had the opportunity to undertake Aveda’s Stylist Programme - learning from some of the best hairdressers in the industry. I worked alongside them on the salon floor, at fashion shows and photo shoots. Assisting one of the UK’s top stylists at London Fashion Week was an experience I’ll never forget.

They inspired me and mentored me in the importance of great technique, structure and shape. These elements combined equal beautiful hair. This experience and understanding is where my love of cutting and styling went from dream to reality.

Never ending education and learning is very important to me, and I’ve trained at the Vidal Sassoon Academy and the Trevor Sorbie Assistant Programme. I am lucky to have travelled to learn from some of the most gifted educators in the industry.
