I Spoke My Dream Gigs Into Existence.

Charleston ScSingle mother of 2, ages 18 and 23, currently live in Atlanta.
Ever since I began cosmetology school in 1994, I would always say that I am going to be a platform artist, be in magazines and work in commercials.
I moved to Atlanta after dating my ex husband for 2 months. In the 7 years that followed, I was able to do all three! First the salon I worked at had 2 magazines come out and cover us so my work was in those magazines. Next I got the opportunity to be on stage at a tradeshow and do hair in front of thousands of people. After that I was able to meet with Kenny Smith the basketball player and I became his daughter’s hair stylist. From that I did the 2013 NBA all star commercial. All came true quickly and it was all an amazing experience!
Recently, after saying to God that I wanted to try corporate America, I became a Site Supervisor for a Facilities Management Company within one month. I learned my role quickly and have an ability to make things happen. I have learned how to communicate better using my computer skills and I am actually responsible for a 250,000 square foot building and a staff of 8 people. Now that is amazing!!!
I believe in more to come and I continue to ‘speak over’ my life daily. There is nothing impossible to those that believe!!!
