I have been described as a educator inside and out. Sharing my experiences, talents and knowledge is my passion. A memory that has always stuck with me is handing brush rollers to my grandma before I could even walk.  Seeing her connection with her clients, I understood that she was transform people inside and out. It was so powerful to me; an art! I wanted to be just like her.
I’ve worked in the field of cosmetology for as long as I have memories.
My eye has always been drawn to style and fashion and I have pursued that passion through many venues.

I have taught early childhood/elementary  education in four private schools.  As a stylist, I have held managing stylist positions at 5 salons throughout the state of Oklahoma, while I am currently hold a  position as a colourist here in Tulsa.

As an entrepreneur, I have owned a personal stylist business for over 15 years and am presently a managing personal stylist at J. Crew in my spare time.
