That little girl who filled notebooks with sketches of dresses and dreamed about fashion?
That was me.
Long before I understood color theory or seasonal palettes, I was fascinated by design, creativity, and the way color could completely change how someone looked—and more importantly, how they felt. I loved creating outfits on paper, experimenting with color combinations, and imagining how small details could transform someone's confidence.
Life eventually led me down a different path.
For more than two decades, I built a career as a registered nurse and healthcare executive. My work has always centered on helping people improve their health, navigate life's challenges, and become the best version of themselves.
What I came to realize is that confidence and wellness are deeply connected.
When people feel healthy, they often feel more confident. When they feel confident, they show up differently—in their careers, relationships, and everyday lives.
That realization brought me back to the passion I discovered as a little girl.
I created the Hue Method studio because I believe beauty isn't about changing who you are. It's about discovering what has always been there.
I believe color is more than fashion.
It's one of the ways we express ourselves. The colors we wear influence how we feel, how we present ourselves, and how others experience us. When your wardrobe is in harmony with your natural coloring, you don't just look more radiant—you often feel more like yourself.
That's why I believe beauty and wellness go hand in hand.
Professional personal color analysis isn't about putting people into a box or telling them what they can't wear. It's about giving them the knowledge and confidence to make intentional choices that reflect who they truly are.
I've always admired women who embraced authenticity over expectations. Madonna expressed herself fearlessly through fashion and reinvention, while Pamela Anderson reminded the world that confidence doesn't require perfection when she chose to walk the red carpet makeup-free. Both, in their own way, challenged conventional ideas of beauty and encouraged others to define it for themselves.
That philosophy inspires everything we do at The Hue Method.
Every consultation is designed to help you discover the colors that naturally enhance your skin tone, eyes, and hair while simplifying your wardrobe and strengthening your confidence. Whether you're preparing for a new career, a wedding, a milestone birthday, or simply investing in yourself, my goal is the same:
To help you see your own beauty with fresh eyes.
Because when you stop trying to become someone else and start embracing who you already are, something remarkable happens.
You don't just find your colors.
You find your glow.
