Right now, my main objective is to set the stage for one of the best success stories about to come.”
“I am excited to announce our new ceo and president, Richard Dantas, a well-respected veteran in both the beauty and executive worlds for his keen attention to detail, patient understanding of the business’ needs, his steadfastness and his bullish tactics to win,” said Stoute.
