If we haven't met yet, you pronounce my name Asia, but I'll pretty much answer to anything. I hated my name as a child and told my parents that as soon as I turned 18, I was changing it; then, I turned 18, and I loved it. Recently, I've been reminding them how much I love it and how lucky I am to have such a unique name. 

​

I'm married (to a chef, and he spoils us with treats from time to time), and I have two incredibly handsome boys. Although I always wanted to be a girl Mom so I could dress them up in ripped jeans, tiny Dr. Martens and do their hair cool... that dream didn't happen. I am, however, happy to say I did dress my boys in ripped jeans, Dr. Martens (not anymore because they are too cool to have Mom dress them), but I do still get to do their hair, as they both rock long hair and have the most beautiful curls. 

​

I've always taken the question "why did you get into hair" more seriously than others; I hate when people say, "oh, because we get to make clients look and feel beautiful." Yes, we do get to do that, but I got into hair for more reasons, not just that. I got into hair because I wanted to be creative every day; I didn't want to do the same thing day in and day out. I stayed doing hair because I'm pretty dang good at it, and I enjoy the one-on-one experience I get to give and get from my clients. We're the first to know when something big and beautiful happens in their lives, and we are trusted with their deepest darkest secrets. And I still do hair because it's my passion, and I want to show my boys that big things can happen when they are passionate about something. I want to show them that being a female entrepreneur and leading a kick-ass team is a dream come true, and I want them to have big dreams too. 

​

I've travelled the world, met some pretty magical people, and done things I never thought I'd do because of this "job." I'm blessed to love what I do, and I don't take it for granted. 

​

See you soon,
