“After finishing Year 12, I had no idea what I wanted to do—until a tour of Wodonga TAFE changed everything. That’s when I discovered hairdressing and knew I’d found my passion. The hands-on learning really stood out, and it pushed me to keep going. I love the creative side, especially men’s cuts and colour work, but what keeps me motivated is seeing how confident and happy clients feel after a great transformation.”
