1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
​Hello, I was born and raised in Bessemer, Alabama. Roll Tide!! My hobby, passion, and full time business is the nail industry. I am proud to be the only licensed all-American-owned nail salon in the city. I’ve been busy and booked for eight years; I work next door to my husband of 13 years. He owns Taylor Kutz. Not only are we self employed in beauty, but travel as well. We've always loved to travel, but now getting paid to book is even more rewarding.

2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
Personally I have grown tremendously. I was so shy at first. However, now I have a team of strangers that are now family. We talk all the time and we love helping each other grow .

3. What drives you; what motivates you?
My drive comes from achieving my goals. My husband motivates me more than anyone to always jot down goals and create a plan to execute. I once heard, “Either your mind will expand to match your goals, or your goals will shrink to match your mind."

4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
Everyone in the company has become a role model for me. I see the hard work, dedication, and heartfelt videos. We all push each other. There is no such thing as giving up

5. The three words that describe you best are:
Passionate, Humble, Grateful.

6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
This best advice is always do your best. Amateurs focus on the front end, so stay consistent! No matter where you are right now ask yourself: “What if I gave It everything I have?” Also don’t be afraid to reach out for help.

7. What does your life look like five years from now?
Five years from now my goal is to be Five-Star Director! I plan to gain one star every year!
