About me

What do you get when you cross a passionate leader with a relentless knowledge seeker?  

Do you believe knowledge is the key to success? Every day learning is imperative in the business world, and the beauty and grooming industries are no exception. If you’re looking for a growth focused team leader, find out more here.

As a Licensed Cosmetologist and Senior Education, Training, Sales, and Operations Leader with a proven record of exceeding goals and sales targets, I have extensive experience in leading and coaching management teams in the professional beauty and grooming industries.

With a broad background in driving high performing teams, developing curriculum, training transfer, content creation, sales and operations growth, and improvement of systems and processes, I am a disruptive thinker who recognizes that it’s the total package that leads to growth, accomplished through focusing on people, education and collaboration.

A team that learns is a team that succeeds. How can we educate beauty and grooming professionals if we do not continuously learn and innovate ourselves? 

I’m an ambitious, fast learner who is always looking for continuous growth and new challenges. Feel free to contact me for more information.
