From the foot hills of the great smokey mountains, I grew up in the middle of nature and seeing the beauty in what was already there. For me there was nothing as beautiful as seeing the soft butter blondes that the sun creates when one is outside living life. Those multi-dementional blondes are at the heart of what drives me. Even when I am doing a chocolate brown, imitating nature and recreating a rich natural look is my goal. I love to bring out someone's color or emphasize a much loved feature. My favorite part of the job is not in the creation of beauty, but exposing what was there all along.
