Kat’s career began in San Francisco’s Union Square neighborhood in 1998 using Vidal Sassoon cutting and Wella International color techniques. She spent many years training; specializing and mastering in both cut and color techniques to offer a total look. Over the years, she has developed a specialty in curly and fine hair, where she takes special care to work with the curl/wave pattern, texture and growth pattern of each head she encounters. Kat uses a special dry cut technique she developed early in her career for a perfect result. Kat recently became a certified Deva Curl Inspired hair cutter.

Her career has included styling for the stars, photo shoots and set work both in San Francisco and in New York.
