I joined Shear genius in 1986 and became a co-owner with Donna Exum in 1990. Since then we have doubled our business and had to relocate the salon.

I find haircoloring and permanent straightening very rewarding. With the hair straightening products that I use it is very life changing for my clients that have fought curl all their lives. I am dedicated to continuous education and innovation.

I am a spiritual, fun loving grandma. When I'm not on the Harley with my husband I'm pursuing other creative talents such as gardening and painting. I feel that we need to keep balance in our lives.
