Owner and Head Groomer

Dogs have always been a part of my life. At 13 years old, I started in 4-H club training and showing my Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier.

After my first grooming seminar in 2016 I quit my job and opened my first salon. I saw a better way to take care of my best friends and yours’.

I love a Saluki and Afghan Hound but Tobi was my love. A Red Siberian Husky. He is the reason I am where I am.

Lead Groomer

I started grooming as a part time job in high school, little did I know it would become my career. I love to incorporate creative, whimsical aspects into both pet and breed standard grooms. My favorite breed is a tie between Black Russian Terrier and Briard. At home I have George, an American Foxhound, and Major, a Standard Poodle.

Groomer

I got into grooming in 2018. I started as a Bather and I worked my way to become a Groomer in 2019. It took me a long time to choose a career path, but I am so glad I found grooming.

At home I own 2 Pomeranians, Dani and Demi. I also had a Pomeranian previous to my current ones, his name was Kash. If Kash hadn’t fell into my life I would have never discovered grooming as a career choice.

I started grooming in Arizona at the beginning of 2020 and continued working with dogs when I moved back to NY at the end of 2020. I quickly understood that this was my calling in life.

When I rescued my first dog in 2017, an Australian Shephard/ Pit Bull/ Chow Chow mix named Arlie and she threw me into the world of dog training, dog behaviors and advocating for rescues over-coming reactivity and fear.

I am so excited to be working with the girls at Shampooches where I know I’ll grow and learn so much more about how to make YOUR dog have the best groom possible.
