Hi! My name is Brent Golden, and I’m the founder of the Davines Professional Academy here in Lincoln, NE. After growing up in Lincoln and graduating from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, I began my career in beauty sales eventually becoming the V.P. of Sales for Paul Mitchell, where I spent 23 years of my career. I founded the Davines Professional Academy of Beauty and Business in 2013 under its original name Paul Mitchell The School, Lincoln. My goal is to use my industry background and expertise to provide unique insights about the beauty industry to every student that walks through our door and help them build the best careers possible for themselves!

Hey y’all! My name is Stephanie Foreman, or as everyone here likes to call me “Foreman!” I am the Director of the School and could not be happier to hold this position. I get to watch prospective Future Professionals turn into Future Professionals, then just like that into Cosmetologists. This is by far the best industry and I am so excited that you are thinking of joining our Davines family! I have been here at the school since October 2013 and have never looked back. This is my home and I love each and every person that walks through our doors!

Hi! My name is Bobbie Hotler. I am the Admissions Leader and an Instructor for Davines Professional Academy of Beauty and Business. I have been a Licenced Cosmetologist for 15 years and a Licenced Cosmetology Instructor for 11 years. I love every aspect of the hair industry. It’s this love of the industry that I feel helps me connect with prospective students and answer any and all questions you may have regarding the application process.
