Better known as Soph, I’m passionate about all things hair—especially lived-in blondes, men’s cuts, and extensions. I love the creative process, the connections I build, and seeing the confidence that comes with a great transformation. As I continue to grow in my craft, I’m always looking for new techniques and inspiration to bring fresh, personalized looks to my clients.
For me, this career is more than just hair—it’s about creating an experience. Whether it’s a subtle change or something bold, I’m here to listen, collaborate, and make sure every client leaves feeling their best.
When I’m not behind the chair, I’m with my best friend, Nala—a dog who’s basically my shadow (and probably thinks she runs the place). Whether we’re out exploring or just hanging at home, she’s always by my side!
Originally from Cape Cod, Massachusetts, I’ve always had a love for creativity, connection, and a well-organized space. As an assistant, I enjoy being hands-on in the salon, supporting both the team and our guests to create a seamless, elevated experience.
A few words I live by:
"Everyone buys books, few ever read them. Everyone wants growth, few accept pain. Everyone wants to be happier, few ever change."
"Intention is nothing without action, but action is nothing without intention."
When I’m not at work, you’ll find me immersed in art, fashion, and hair—or out chasing an adventure. Whether it’s camping under the stars, catching waves, or going for a run, I love anything that keeps me moving and inspired.
