Biography

Fashion and style have always been important in Ruth’s life. She has an innate ability to provide beauty, wardrobe and career advice that reflect men and women’s unique strengths and characteristics. She honed these skills while working in New York City in the fashion industry, as well as during the many years she traveled the globe as the personal adviser and manager for numerous Miss USAs and Miss Universes.

These experiences were life-enriching and, yes, glamorous, but Ruth always knew she wanted to extend her reach to as many men and women possible and become an entrepreneur. Her passion and expertise involves consulting with clients, advising them on image-making techniques and presentations, while helping them avoid image-breaking situations. These comprehensive consultations could include closet audits, personal shopping trips, or makeup and hairstyle suggestions.

Ruth is a firm believer in the adage that less is more. In her one-on-one sessions, she helps her clients develop a basic wardrobe that can be accessorized and transformed with jewelry, scarves, or the right handbag or shoe. For men, she assists in selecting the right shirt and tie, shoes and sox that will make that basic suit or coat and slacks project confidence.

Ruth also provides group presentations for corporations on the basics of personal style in the workplace from dress codes to general business etiquette, to writing the thank you note. She takes pride in helping clients celebrate their individual style, teaching them that when they feel good inside, it’s easier to project confidence, personally and professionally.

Ruth is the recipient of the Idaho Business Review Women of the Year 2008 Award, and is an active member of the Association of International Image Consultants.

Ruth’s mission is to make a positive and memorable difference in people’s lives.
