PHASE 4 COMPLETE!!
🌈🎨✨💗 It’s official… I am a Matrix Artist & educator! Proud to have made it through 6 months of extensive training on proper class facilitation, advance styling methods and in depth product knowledge. I am excited to continue with a company that sees and celebrates me and coaches me to my highest self. This is the beginning of a beautiful partnership. 

A big thank you to the director and facilitators throughout the journey. You raise the standard and it’s an honor to continue to learn from the best of the best. 

📚💭🗣️ Mich the teach?! I think it has a good ring to it.

long post ahead!!

What a whirlwind the last year has been. If you told me last August that when I sent Caitie an email of my audition video and resume that the next year of my life would look like this, I don’t think I would have believed you. 

Two in person trainings in Los Angeles at the L’Oréal West Academy, many zoom trainings, countless hours studying, preparing, and learning not only more about Matrix as a brand but also how to stand in front of a classroom. Matrix Artist training has pushed me out of my comfort zone, forced me in the absolute best way to become a better version of myself; not only as a full time hair stylist, but into a facilitator, communicator, and in ways that have affected my personal life too. 

I am my own worst critic, and I strive for perfection. Most of my life the motto was: “do or do not; there is no try”. But that has now changed. The new phrase is “progress not perfection”. But speaking as my own worst critic: I am damn proud of myself for getting here. I’ve worked hard. I’ve cried, I’ve found myself wondering if I could do it: but I DID. BUT there is still work to be done; I’ll always be a work in progress for the entirety of my career. 

I absolutely could not have gotten to this point if it weren’t for so many people in my life. First of all: THE MATRIX NATIONAL TRAINING TEAM. let me tell you- this group is incredible. They push you when they need to push, they build you up, they tell you the hard things, but they build you up and truly have our best interests at heart and truly want only the good things for us. I admire each of them so incredibly much and I am so grateful for everything they have poured into me individually, 1 on 1, and into our class and all the time they spent. I don’t think I could ever thank any of them enough for everything they did and continue to do. I don’t even have the words for the way that they have truly changed my life and I am so grateful.
