I began my Direct Sales journey way back in 1981 when a girlfriend invited me to a skincare and makeup party at her place.  I love makeup and thought…wow I can earn money doing this!!  At the time I had just purchased my first car and wanted to pay it off as quickly as possible.  I saw this as the perfect opportunity.  Little did I know all the benefits a career in Direct Sales would offer!

For the past 17 years I have enjoyed success as a Diamond Director with Grace Cosmetics.  I have a dynamic business that allows me the freedom to pursue the lifestyle that I desire.  I enjoy being my own boss and a successful business woman and I get great pleasure in encouraging and inspiring other women from all walks of life to do the same.
