Tanya Abriol

Facilitator

Tanya Abriol is an educator, entrepreneur and celebrity hair stylist who brings over two decades of creative experience and mentorship to her work with ReEvolution. Tanya has built a career around empowering others—whether behind the chair, in front of the camera, or in the classroom.

At Valley State Prison, Tanya contributes to the ReEvolution program by supporting the youth population as they reconnect with their sense of purpose, creativity, and personal value. Her approach blends authenticity with accountability, rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a chance to rewrite their story.

Having navigated both personal and professional transformation in her own life, Tanya shows up with compassion, humor, and deep respect for the resilience of the human spirit. She is passionate about sharing real conversations, real tools, and real hope.

Off the clock, Tanya’s either wrangling her dogs, booking a last-minute trip, or riding shotgun with her husband, Neeko, to Valley State Prison—where they split up at the gate to do their thing, each in their own lane, but with the same mission in mind.
