After college, she chose to pursue hairstyling professionally and attended the International Institute of Cosmetology in Wethersfield, Connecticut, following a growing passion she discovered while doing her friends’ hair.

She especially loves blonding services and the detail that goes into creating soft, dimensional color that feels elevated and personalized. Beyond the finished result, MaryKate values the connection built in the chair and believes great hair starts with making clients feel comfortable, understood, and cared for throughout the experience. Her goal is always to create a look that leaves each client feeling confident, refreshed, and like the best version of themselves.
