Experience

1. Angel Investor Advisor

   Drft Scalp Facial Lounge

   Jan 2024 — Present · Raleigh, NC, US

   DRFT is a new business concept that is being incubated out of the Hightide Salon and Suites. I am a co-founder and substantial equity investor in the business. We believe scalp health is essential and new frontier in the beauty and hair care industry. We launched the service offering as part of Hightide and it quickly became a stand-alone business after going viral on Instagram views),>1k on the waitlist, and booking out 9 months\' worth of appointments in a few weeks. The studio team of now 6 providers, specializes in providing scalp facial services and deep relaxation to guests. The service methodology is unique and custom to DRFT, perfected by master stylist Maggie Leonhardt. Clients leave with a treatment regimen for their scalp and a healthier head of hair.
