Meet LaTonya, owner of @elitesecrets she will be a speaker at MINT and hosting a workshop on building a team of stellar creatives you can partner and collaborate with. ------ Baltimore native, Latonya Turnage always had a passion for all things beautiful. As a little girl, she enjoyed playing dress up. Applying makeup and styling hair were her favorite things to do during playtime. LaTonya attended Mergenthaler High School for cosmetology. After graduating high school, she continued her dream by attending Gordon's Beauty School located in Baltimore, MD. Shortly after, LaTonya received her license in cosmetology. After passing her State Board exams, she began her career as a hair stylist working in a local hair salon. Ten years later LaTonya began working as a part-time artist for MAC Cosmetics, after starting her family. She enjoyed working with brides the most, but also had a love for teaching. Also, a beauty educator, LaTonya teaches the art of makeup at one of Maryland's Accredited Schools for Makeup. Latonya worked hard to build her beauty career all while balancing being a mom, wife, and full-time account manager at her corporate position. She worked as a business leader for Estèe Lauder, Clinique and other brands under the Estèe Lauder umbrella. After 14 years of juggling makeup artistry and her corporate post, LaTonya left the corporate world to pursue her passion of becoming a full-time entrepreneur in the wedding industry. In 2015, LaTonya took a leap of faith and open Elite Secrets Bridal. ------- We are truly excited to have LaTonya of @elitesecrets lead 1 of 12 workshops and the community is really in for a treat!
