I am a proud Army veteran with 24 years of military service, a beauty professional with 12 years of industry experience, and the owner of Daymaker LLC and Daymaker Beauty Boutique. As a graduate of Paul Mitchel the School, I have combined my creativity, technical expertise, and leadership experience to build a career rooted in beauty, confidence, entrepreneurship, and service.

Through Daymaker Beauty Boutique, I am passionate about creating an elevated beauty experience while providing opportunities for beauty professionals to grow, develop their skills, and build successful careers.

My commitment to service extends beyond the military. I proudly serve as a Board Member of Legacy Foundation for Change, where I support initiatives focused on creating opportunities, empowering individuals, and making a positive impact within the community.

Above all, I am the proud mother of an amazing 15-year-old son, Ricardo, a Film and New Media AP Scholar, who inspires me to lead by example and build a legacy that extends beyond myself.

My mission is to use beauty, education, entrepreneurship and service to empower others, create opportunities, and inspire the next generation to recognize their potential and make a lasting impact.
