Rena moved from Arizona to Florida after she was able to secure a place with us. She is a Certified Master Groomer having originally graduated from Paragon School of Grooming some 12 years ago. In her career she became a General Manager for grooming services at a Petco in Detroit.  Rena was born in Detroit from Mexican parents, has a handsome son, Adam, and a new husband David. 

After her second marriage, her husband wanted to support her in her dream of being a stylist more than only a hair cutter. She knew of Jarbas’ reputation as an internationally known teacher and of Ipanema as a salon where dogs are made to look like the champions they could be...  So after e-mails, phone calls and referrals, Rena moved to Miami where she and David can indulge in their love of fishing when she is not at the salon.
