Seventeen years ago, on June 13, 1989, I began my journey. Now I have something to show for it, a career that almost spans two decades has left me still wondering what’s next?

 DAY ONE OF THE LAST SEVENTEEN YEARS IN THE HAIR INDUSTRY. FROM WORKING AS AN ASSISTANT TO BEING ON STAGE AT THE WORLDS LARGEST HAIR COLOR SHOW. PLATFORM WORK WAS ALL THIS ARTIST EVER WANTED TO DO. NOW, HE IS TAKING COMFORT IN MAINTAINING HIS CLIENTELE, AS WELL AS TEACHING ALL THAT HE HAS LEARNED TO HIS ASSISTANTS. VIDAL SASSOON  IS THE BASIS FOR HIS HAIR CUTTING TECHNIQUES  FOLLOWED CLOSELY BY TRAINING FROM TONY & GUY ACADEMY IN LONDON. MOST  RECENTLY HE AND OWNER MARLA GOKE JUST RETURNED FROM NEW YORK WHERE THEY TRAINED WITH VIVIENNE MACKINDER (4 TIME WINNER OF THE NORTH AMERICAN HAIRDRESSER OF THE YEAR AWARD).  BUT IT'S NOT ALL CUTTING TRAINING, HAIRCOLOR EDUCATION BEGAN WITH TRESSA.  AFTER CORPORATE TRAINING WITH STACY SANDIFORD TO GO ON TO TEACH AT  REGIONAL HAIR SHOWS, THERE WAS L'OREAL WHO DID THE SAME, SERVED AS A MEMBER ON THE  1994 HAIRCOLOR U.S.A. TEAM, AS WELL AS AN  ALTERNATE FOR AMERICA  TEAM "Y.E.S."! SERVING AS A MEMBER ON COSMOPINION PANEL,  GREGORY  TESTED PRODUCTS BEFORE THEY HIT THE MARKET FOR THE NANCY FLYNN MARKETING GROUP.  MORE COLOR TRAINING COMING FROM GOLDWELL FOR THE LAST 14 YEARS AS WELL AS CERTIFIED IN ALTERNA'S THERMAL HAIR STRAIGHTENING SYSTEM. WITH TIME SPENT TRAING AT SALONS LIKE FREDERIC FEKKIA  AND LOUIS LACARI, GREGORY COMES PREPARED FOR EVERYTHING.
