I have been in the industry for over 17 years. I have owned a salon, managed salons, and also consulted for three salons. I was behind the chair for 12 years before I ventured off into ownership. I went on to be an instructor for a barber school, where I revamped the entire curriculum and testing. By doing the reformation it allowed the school to go up for accreditation. I left the industry to go into management of retail. I didn’t like the cooperate world so now I am back instructing dual programs at a Beauty College.
