Emily joined the Accolades Salon & Spa team in April 2026 and quickly became known for her creativity, welcoming energy, and love for all things hair color. She graduated from cosmetology school in Eau Claire, Wisconsin in September 2024 and has been growing her passion for the beauty industry ever since. Emily was drawn to Accolades for its supportive team, strong sense of community, and opportunities for continued education. She has always loved doing hair for friends and family, and that passion turned into a career focused on helping people feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable in their own skin. Emily loves creating vivids, blonding services, and dimensional brunettes, and enjoys using hair as a form of creativity and self-expression. One of her favorite parts of the industry is making her chair a safe, welcoming space for every client, especially members of the LGBTQ+ community. Outside of the salon, Emily enjoys getting coffee, going to concerts, thrifting, collecting records, reading, coloring, traveling, and spending time with her friends, family, fiancée, and two cats.
