Tell us about yourself? (who are you, where are you from, what do you do, etc.)
Well I’m a Midwest girl turned Georgia peach. Born and raised in Kansas City (Go Chiefs lol ) and moved to Atlanta to attend Clark Atlanta University. What do I do? A LOT of things. First , I’m a mom of an awesome 9 year old who is also autistic. I went from an IT consulting job to HR to becoming a professional makeup artist of 15 years. I now own a cosmetic line and artist agency called The Glamatory. I’m also the founder and COO of Grind Pretty which is a membership community and subscription box that is female founder focused!
