How did you get into the Barber/Beauty Biz?
My journey into the industry was first inspired by my brother, who owned a community barbershop. Watching him serve clients and earn respect in the community ignited my desire to become a business owner and entrepreneur. During my college
years, I became the campus barber, cutting student's hair in residence halls, which eventually evolved into my profession and craft. The autonomy of being self-employed greatly appealed to me.
After college, I embarked on my career by working in my brother's shop. However, I faced adversity when we were forced to close the barbershop. The pandemic propelled me into house calls, where I spotted an opportunity to develop a mobile workstation to equip professionals like me with the necessary tools. Although I'm no longer a practicing barber, I've taken on the role of creating the tools they need to provide top-quality service. I remain connected to the community as we are all creators and independent business owners.
