I’ve been in the beauty industry since I was 18 years old.  I started out as a makeup artist and image consultant while I was attending University of Nevada Reno in 1989.  I loved working with companies and individuals on their personal image and after 12 years I went to Beauty School to further my education and get my license to do hair.

​

In 2001, I was blessed to work  at a salon called DaVinci’s when I first got out of school and then a year later I opened up TresImage in 2002. Fast forward 21 years later, and here we are…. TresImage at its current location. In July 2023, I decided to step down as a salon owner and sold TresImage.

​

What does this business mean to me?  Everything!  I spent 21 years building and growing a hybrid salon into a wonderful place with amazing salon professionals who are passionate about their craft and pride themselves on excellent customer service. And, now I'm on my own career path inside Goldie's Salon Suites where I can focus on my clients and my salon coaching business.

​

Personally, I’m behind the chair four days a week and I love my clients.  I really enjoy doing all sorts of things, but A lines and Pixies are truly fun and exciting for me.  I also love Natural hair color and grey coverage applications. 

​

Ask anyone and they will tell you that I always run on time.  I don’t like to run late.  

​

When I’m not at work, I love to hang out with my husband Ruben and our 11 year old daughter Annalisa.  We love to camp, boat, travel and eat great food. 

​

If we haven't met yet, please reach out. Can't wait to meet you!
