About Creator

I started as a full-time barber/stylist in 2012. I had good clientele, but I was tired of standing on my feet all day, dealing with tons of clients, and trying to run my business professionally on the backend. Not to mention my everyday life that I had to tend to.‍

My dream was to be able to take care of my family, buy my dream car and home & travel.

I was making decent money, but not enough for the life I really wanted to live.‍

I opened my first traditional salon & barbershop with only 6 chairs in 2014. Two years later, I continued working behind the chair and I partnered with a friend to open my first Salon Suite business with 17 suites.

But, I had a bigger vision. So my friend and I parted ways and I started my own Salon Suite brand independently in 2017 and later opened a total of 4 locations in the Atlanta, GA area under the same brand.

‘AND This’ was born out of a desire to celebrate our complexities, our multi-dimensional selves that refuse to be boxed in. It’s a shout-out to all the dreamers who juggle multiple passions, who wear many hats, and who refuse to be defined by a single label. This platform is more than just a space, it’s a community. A community where we can embrace our diverse interests, where we can explore different facets of our identities, and where we can inspire each other to break free from the constraints of ‘niching’ down. I hope to foster a space where you feel seen, heard, and valued for all that you are. A place where your creativity and passions are not just welcomed but celebrated.
