Founder of Bellacures Franchised Nail Salons, based in Los Angeles (Acquired '17). Columnist for Inc.com. Ghost writer. Business advisor. Passionate about growth, leadership and alignment with personal strengths.
I am passionate about turning an idea into a real life service or product that serves a community. I'd love to help you brainstorm if its the right path for you or how you can begin to execute on your idea. Having been a member of the Entrepreneur's Organization for over five years, I possess the analytical skills needed to help coach you through the process.
I have over ten years of experience in public speaking in groups of as small as 10 people to as large as 500 people. I have spoken on panels, moderated panels, spoken to university classrooms and at business events. I have tips on both preparing for a speaking engagement technically, verbally and emotionally. I can help coach you through the process.
I majored in Business Admin with an emphasis in International Business. I have written a handful of business plans in my lifetime. I think a good business idea is only as good as its plan. The plan is more important for you, in helping you have a road map than anything else. The more thorough the plan, the better your starting point will be.
I launched a nail salon brand when the nail salon industry was fragmented, only competing on price. Bellacures was built to compete on several other elements that customers were willing to pay a premium for and become loyal to. Note: I cannot give advice to other nail salon concepts.
I am passionate about growth and love helping people hone in on what options are available when strategizing. I believe that a good strategy has many angles and paths. I'd love to help you build yours - whether it's developmental or financial.
