Ms. Farnese is an alumna of the MCST Cosmetology program and has been a licensed Cosmetologist for 18 years and counting.  Because she attended the Share-Time program here at MCST, she is able to connect to each and every one of her students and finds her teaching career comes with great reward as it combines her love for Cosmetology and the opportunity to teach future professionals to learn new skills and navigate an industry that can be exciting and overwhelming to start at such a young age. Proud moments as a Cosmetology instructor/ Mentor,  include witnessing student growth, licensure, employment, client retention,  and last but not least, having students come back to teach classes! If she is not working on clients during her time off, she enjoys spending time with her family, friends, her Olde English bulldog, Rudy or thinking of exciting ways to enhance the Cosmetology Program. Ms. Farnese is grateful for working alongside amazing instructors, supportive staff, and industry professionals who truly care about student success.
