About Us
Who We Are
The Pink Collar Collective is more than just an event—it’s a community. Founded by Rian Brown and Tyler Jones, two passionate beauty entrepreneurs, this collective was created to empower, educate, and connect beauty professionals at every stage of their journey.
Rian Brown is a 22-year-old serial entrepreneur, licensed nail technician, educator, and mentor for beauty professionals. With a bachelor’s degree in Health Information Management and four years of experience in the nail industry, she is dedicated to helping others grow their businesses. She loves teaching, sharing her journey, and inspiring beauty professionals to take their careers to the next level.
Tyler Jones is a 27-year-old entrepreneur and licensed esthetician with four years of experience in the beauty industry. She owns a skincare line, launched her own wax brand, and founded Louisiana’s first esthetician supply store, Esthi Express LA. Passionate about building connections, Tyler has always envisioned a space where beauty professionals could come together to network, learn, and grow.
Together, Rian and Tyler created The Pink Collar Collective to bring beauty professionals into a supportive community where they can thrive, collaborate, and elevate their businesses.
