Living Brave. . .Finishing Strong is the fourth book of the Living Brave series. Dr. Hilda Villaverde and Mary Beth Stern share the life journeys of 45 women, ages 7 – 95. They present these women’s lives as a progression through four quarters of life, asking those in each stage to share their evolution as they have grown, changed and progressed, not despite their challenges and successes, but because of. Each story reflects that persistence and resilience are the secrets to finishing strong. You will experience that each contributor not only observes life, but is a willing participant. I assure you that with each story, each quarter, you will be eager to go on to the next as you will most likely be reflecting on your own experiences. At the end of the book you will be glad you came.

Halie's journey into the world of cosmetology has been anything but straight and narrow. Although art has always been her core strength, she studied business for two years at Arizona State University. As a student, she worked as a youth archery instructor, web support agent, banker, and a server. Finding herself in the customer service realm, it became clear to Halie she needed a career in directly serving others. Ultimately, she made the leap from the standard four-year institutional degree to the artistic expression of cosmetology and received her license as a hairstylist.
Prepared with an eccentric personality and vibrant soul, Halie has a creative eye for color, combined with a detailed mind, she achieves a great finished look and style. She plans to continue her education by attending technique specific classes and advanced trainings in product knowledge and aspires to becoming a master colorist and extension specialist. Working in an Education-Based salon studio assures Halie her passion for enhancing beauty in every client is accomplished with the tools and knowledge she desires. |
