Jon “herds cats,” “shapes fog,” and “eats elephants.” Since graduating from the US Naval Academy, he has been privileged to build a broad repertoire of global experiences – sometimes discussing sustainable coffee practices in the karaoke bars of Buon Ma Thuot and sometimes negotiating trade deals with sheiks in the deserts of Kuwait. He can neither confirm nor deny any interesting sea stories…except that one time in Mombasa underneath a glass bottom boat… that totally happened.
Jon spent 15 years in the corporate world working for somebody else’s dreams (and profits). Now as an IMAGE Studios franchisee, he gets to be a business owner helping others become independent business owners. Jon believes it’s a privilege to be a part of celebrating Creativity, Freedom, and Success that IMAGE Studios provides to beauty professionals of all types.
Stephanie grew up in Kentucky, went to college for marketing, did outside sales, and is now home with three kids! Her hobbies mainly include keeping small children alive, but she also recently took up knitting.
Her and her husband, Jon, chose IMAGE for three reasons. The first being the semi-absentee model, which appealed to them due to the aforementioned three small children. Second, the franchise fees were reasonable because of the support given by the IMAGE team. And finally, Ohio is an open market for the salon suite model. A reason for Stephanie, personally, is that she’s interested in hair, nails, and makeup so she’s thrilled to be apart of the industry.
