I have been involved in the beauty industry since 2003 by attending fashion and creative design classes that have helped me develop my artistic side. I am licensed in Cosmetology and further my education by attending renowned hair stylists' classes such as Nick Arrojo, Beth Minardi, Vidal Sassoon and many others. Being passionate about the process of coloring and cutting hair, my goal is to keep improving my skills to better serve my guests and exceed their expectations and desires. 

​

I am a native of Santa Catarina, in the South of Brazil, and I have been living in Santa Cruz since 2008. I met my husband in this lovely town and we married in 2009. We enjoy spending time together; riding bikes and walking with our birds along East Cliff. My other favorite past times are reading, making jewelry and sewing. In 2015, with my husband's support, I took my career in a new direction and became the owner of Y Studio Hair Salon. Every aspiring entrepreneur needs a mentor and I am thankful to have found Yvonne. She shared her knowledge of the industry and I am so grateful to her. We decided to make this place part of our dreams, creating an environment where everyone who walks through our door would feel the care, appreciation, and love that we share for Y Studio.

I look forward to meeting you!
