Keleka Dawson

School Director


I started this career years ago back in Washington & knew one day I could see me teaching. As a Licensed cosmetologist, instructor and barber I was to share the knowledge not just of the book but the behind the chair things that help make the next generation better. I believe you gain a new brain cell every time you learn something new, so why not keep learning! I have been an instructor for 5 years. And then knew I can take it a step further and giving all my time and knowledge to make our students get the best education possible.
