Tardy to the Party: "I'm from a small town in Arkansas, and my very first Emmy Awards night was a dream come true. When they announced our show as the winner, I got so caught up in the excitement, screaming with joy at my sister, that I forgot to leave my seat. I ended up having to rush to the stage, and I waved and smiled at the crowd all the way until I met my team. Laughter filled the room, making it an unforgettable night."

Emmys Everywhere: "I have three Emmys on my TV stand, accompanied by a guild award, always within my sight. The other one is upstairs in my salon, inspiring me while I work."

Team Effort: "Working with Ryan Murphy and collaborating with the amazing teams of talent he puts together has been a gift that continuously inspires me to become a better hairstylist."

Hair Historian: "If I could do period reenactments for the rest of my career, I would! I love working with custom wigs and recreating authentic period pieces.
