I help salon, spa, and wellness studio owners get a team that delivers the experience like they would, without losing the personal touch that built the business. I’ve seen the gap from both sides, as the operator and as the client, so I can spot exactly where the gaps are and build the fix. I set up the tools you already pay for, build the ones you’re missing, and stick around until your team actually uses them.

Are you the human FAQ? Same question, all day, every day?
Is Sunday night your catch-up-on-admin night? (It wasn't supposed to be.)
Have you ever lost a client because the follow-up just... didn't happen?
Paying for features in your booking software you've never turned on?
Started a business for freedom and now you can't take a bathroom break without checking your phone?

You probably don’t need another app. Let’s use the ones you have first.

Your business runs on 14 open tabs, a group text, and whatever you remember at 6am. Impressive, honestly. Also exhausting. Let’s build it around how your business actually runs, so it runs like butter and nothing falls apart the second you finally take that vacation you’ve dreamt of for 4 years.

Experience Walkthrough

I walk through your business twice: once as a guest, once as your newest hire. Booking, website, intake, follow-up, onboarding. Then I show you exactly where it breaks and how to fix it, in plain English.

Build What’s Missing

First I check what you already have and use it wherever I can. If your software can’t do what you need, I build the rest: an app, a custom tool, a website. Only if you actually need it. I’ll tell you if you don’t.

My Approach

Simplify first.

Then automate.

You don’t need to have it all figured out before we start. Most people show up knowing they’re overwhelmed and not much else. Totally fine. We start with whatever’s heaviest, simplify it, then add AI only where it actually saves time. Not where it just looks cool.

Okay, real talk: AI can save you a sh*t ton of time and sanity. But only when it’s built around how your business actually runs. Not how someone who’s never worked a front desk thinks it runs.

my why

I started this for the owner doing payroll at 11pm in sweatpants.

I started this for the owner doing payroll at 11pm in sweatpants.

Salons. Spas. Med spas. Wellness studios. Businesses run by real people drowning in scheduling, follow-up, training, and the never-ending feeling of being “on.” I know that life. 14 texts before 9am. The schedule redo at 10pm. The new hire who quit before her second paycheck. Been there, fixed that.

The barrier to AI isn’t money. It’s having someone who actually gets your business sitting next to you while you build it. That’s me. We keep the personal touch. We don’t lose you or your voice.

“They should just know” is the most expensive sentence in your business. Overwhelm usually just means nobody wrote it down yet.

Why Work With Me

I know AI so you don’t have to. More importantly, I know what a slammed Saturday at the front desk feels like.

I’ve worked inside Boulevard, Zenoti, GlossGenius, Vagaro, and many more, so we start by getting the most out of the software you already pay for. I work with a multi-location salon brand and wellness brands across the US. I’ve seen the gap from both sides, as the operator and as the guest, so I can spot exactly where things break without you, from the guest experience to the back office. Then I build the fix myself, whether it’s a training manual, a custom tool, a new website, or the process nobody wrote down.

No 40-page binder of ideas. I create real training you and your team can actually use, so people stay longer and hiring gets easier.

Paying for software that was supposed to save you time, and still doing it all by hand? I set it up around how your team really works, so follow-ups and rebookings stop depending on someone remembering.

Nobody can find the process? I’m the person people call. I’ll get you organized so you stop answering the same questions every day.
