7 Questions with ...

1. How/when did you get involved in the tanning industry? I got into the business in 1992 through a prior relationship. I had been injured at my place of employment and migrat- ed to the salon during my recovery. Before that, I was very involved in running the salon, start- ed forming relationships and eventually expanded the business to four locations. That grew into selling tanning equip- ment; the rest is history. 2. How would your friends describe you? Hmm ... I think they would say I’m depend- able, a lover of God, family and veterans. Fun to be around!

3. What is one of your “pet peeves”? My biggest pet peeve is lack of communi- cation or improper communication. (LOL, mind-reading is NOT my superpower … see Question No. 7.) 4. What advice would you have given your 17-year-old self? Hard work will pay off. Follow your dreams and make sure you work hard to fulfill those dreams. 5. If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be? I would choose spaghetti. I love my own recipe, but Mom’s

is the best – with meat sauce, meatballs, what- ever. Spaghetti is my favorite as long as it has Parmesan cheese! 6. Do you collect anything? I am not a big collector of THINGS. At this stage in life, rather, I am work- ing on collecting memories I make with my family, friends and associates. 7. If you were a superhero, what powers would you have? I would have the power to see the future – to know what lies ahead of me; what tomorrow holds. That way, if there is something I can change or improve I could and would do it. 
