Tammy Smith:  

Life Since high school, I continued to work at Petals & Inc, as a bridal and pageant consultant, working with young women from arcoss the nation as they prepare for local, state, and national competitions. I even became the national evening gown sponsor for Miss USA and Miss Teen USA, designing their Miss Universe wardrobe and appearance pieces for the year. Having left Petals & Lace four years ago, I continue working in pageantry as a consultant, judge, wardrobe designer, and volunteer. I even co-direct a local pageant I helped start last year with a friend, Lynnette Cole, Miss USA 2000. Together we prepare and sponsor a Teen and Miss delegate for the Miss Tennessee USA and Teen USA pageant and throughout the year we book appearances for them locally. Outside of pageantry, I work at Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center, where I over-see the daily operations of two of their ladies boutiques, while working on marketing and promoting the department to the local public. I plan local fashion shows, book cosmetic seminars, make appearances on TV and radio, work as a stylist on photoshoots and hire myself out as a personal shopper. Basically, I am there to do whatever it takes to make money for the retail department and get them recognized by Nash...Expand for more
