I’m a multi-unit Drybar franchise owner leading three Nashville-area locations, driven by a passion for brand growth and leadership development. With over 20 years of experience in brand partnerships, sales strategy, and business operations, I’m focused on driving profitability, scaling locations, and strengthening the Drybar network.

Since opening my first shop in 2019, I’ve become a trusted operator known for my strategic mindset, operational discipline, and commitment to delivering an exceptional guest experience. Before franchising, I led high-impact brand campaigns for Fortune 500 companies in entertainment and media, which shaped my deep understanding of consumer engagement and storytelling—skills I bring into my work every day.

I’m committed to collaborating closely with WellBiz to ensure Drybar remains the #1 blowout brand, while empowering fellow franchisees to maximize profitability and build thriving, sustainable businesses.

  • I am the owner and operator of both drybar Nashville locations. I opened my first shop at Capitol View in May 2019 and the second shop at Brentwood Hill Center just five months later in October 2019. In addition, I have successfully navigated these new businesses through a global pandemic.

    My inspiration for opening the first drybar in Nashville was personal, drybar is my happy place! I spent many years traveling for work and visiting drybar in different cities. Instead of trying to find the best hotel, I found myself looking for the hotel closest to drybar. I became addicted to the experience at drybar and the confidence I’d gain from a blowout for my meetings & presentations.

    Being a franchise owner, especially during the pandemic, has been a WILD ride. I am passionate about sharing what I’ve learned with other people interested in owning a franchise or their own business.

  • I have over 15 years of experience in brand partnerships, television production, talent booking & PR, giving me a well rounded understanding of entertainment and how the puzzle pieces fit together.

    Prior to making the jump into entrepreneurship, I worked as Director of Brand Content & Partnerships at the Emmy Award Winning, The Ellen DeGeneres Show & The Ellen Digital Network where I managed ELLEN’s sales team through the entire sales process: initial pitch, contract negotiations, on-air execution & client management. Our clients included: Visa, Mercedes Benz, Dreamworks Animation, CoverGirl, Dunkin’ Donuts, Ford Motor Company, Nordstrom and more.

    Previously, as Talent Executive, I secured 300+ A-List talent bookings for TV, film, and sports where I quickly realized my love of negotiating and amplifying the opportunities that talent had being on The Ellen Show.

    My career began at the #1 entertainment new magazine, CBS’s Entertainment Tonight and I was instrumental in the launch of the all-new, millennial targeted show The Insider. I worked directly with on-air talent, managing production staff and creating daily content.

    I graduated from Mississippi State University with a BA degree in Broadcast Journalism.

  • More recently, I have decided to share my expertise through Miss Pink Media. For the past two years, I have been doing project-based consulting work for brand and talent clients alike. Some of my work has included:

    • Sales Training

    • Mentorship sessions with sales and partnership teams

    • Agency brainstorming sessions for client work and partnerships

    • Advise sales and pitching strategy for brands and creative projects

    • Creative Development for special projects

    • Personal Brand Development

    • Media Training & Mock Interviews and more.
