In 2007 Cari achieved a life long goal of opening her own salon where, after attending The Summit, she implemented the Summit business systems. “Having grown up on the teachings and systems of Michael Cole since I began my career and attended “Boot Camp” in 1992, I knew that these skills would benefit my team and help them grow into artists with a plan for success in their business.”
After ten years as a salon owner Cari sold the salon and continues to work there behind the chair serving her guests and training the associates for the new owners.
“I love change and I am always looking for new and exciting ways to challenge myself both personally and in my career. I so strongly believe in the SSBC systems , and I am honored to be part of a team where I can share all my professional experiences and knowledge with other salon owners and hopefully make their journey as easy and rewarding as possible!”
