I fell in love with the fitness industry at a young age. I started with my own home programs, took long walks for cardio and learned everything I could possibly learn about the industry on TV. (No internet back than.)

​

However, fitness wasn't my first career choice. My first love was cosmetology. I knew I wanted to one day open a Salon and after working for someone else I was lucky enough to open and co own my first business Rapunzel Salon in 1997.
