Paragon mentor Brandy Reese began her grooming career in 1995 in Atlanta, GA. After learning to groom in Georgia, she moved to Nashville, TN where she furthered her grooming skills and became a national certified master groomer.
Over the course of her lengthy career, she has taught and mentored new groomers, worked as a grooming manager, and owned a successful mobile grooming business. Brandy currently owns Canine Design Nashville, where she styles some of Nashville’s most beautiful pups! She feels that the key to creating beautiful grooms is to pay attention to the small details. Every haircut is precision scissor finished, with the goal to bring out the best features in every pet. In addition to offering full scissor trims, Brandy also hand strips terriers and sporting breeds.
Grooming is her passion, and she holds a special place in her heart for geriatric pets and those with special needs. Brandy’s goal is to provide the pets in her care with the same loving kindness that she gives her own. She is currently the “mom” to 3 dogs- Rosy, a Boston Terrier; Leroy, a Bullmastiff and Erik, a Doberman Pinscher.
As a Paragon mentor, Brandy loves sharing the knowledge she has accumulated in her nearly 3 decade career with students. She loves interacting with new students who never fail to bring fresh ideas and perspectives to the job! Her goal with Paragon is to help develop a new generation of pet stylists with impeccable skills and a love for the grooming profession.
