every woman should feel beautiful and seen.
THE STORY BEHIND STYLE BY COLOR
When I discovered Color Analysis, I immersed myself in the industry, left my job, and opened an image consulting firm in Miami. Listen to the rest of my story!
I've been in the image industry for over 30 years and it all begin in Miami, Florida,
where I graduated from Bauder College with a degree in Fashion Merchandising. After working a few years as a buyer and manager for a specialty store's cosmetic department, I ventured out on my own and opened an image consulting firm in South Miami.
I became fascinated with color when Color Me Beautiful blew onto the scene...I could not get enough of learning about it. I was trained in the 4 Season system, and later, the 12 Seasons system until I developed my own system years later. I was one of the original color consultants trained in the United States. I took every opportunity to learn about style and how to dress my clients. Proportion, balance, scale, and knowing what styles look best on women with unique body shapes was a passion and I soon became an expert in the image consulting industry.
Eventually, I moved to North Carolina where I started speaking and writing (after spending seven years in Mary Kay where I earned 3 pink cadillacs, until God called me out on my own). In 2010, my first book came out ("Good Girls Don't Have to Dress Bad") and that's the same year I started the Christian Image Consultant Academy. The Color Academy began a few years ago to keep up with the demand of women wanting to be trained in color analysis.
The desire of my heart is that every woman would develop a deep understanding of her personal style and her best colors so she can reflect her true identity and remain relevant in today's visual world.
