Get Started

I’m Margaret

COLOR CONSULTANT, FRENCH TEACHER, AND PIANO TEACHER

I am a lifelong teacher with a passion for bringing out the best in others. After college, I moved to France to teach English, an experience that shaped my sense of beauty, color, and intentional living. The elegance of French language and style, the quiet confidence of natural beauty, and the way color is used with purpose left a lasting impression.

It was in France where I first learned about la colorimétrie, the art of discovering the colors that illuminate one’s authentic beauty. The philosophy resonated deeply: beauty isn’t created, it’s revealed.

My work in language and music is woven from the same thread. I pursued graduate work in French and in piano performance, and have spent most of my professional life teaching French at the university level. Today, whether teaching French, piano, or guiding a client through color, intention and harmony always shape my approach.

  • "It was such a fun and truly life-changing experience."

    “A friend and I had our color analysis done with Margaret and it was such a fun and truly life-changing experience. She was so knowledgeable and made the whole process so enjoyable. I was amazed at how much brighter my skin looked and how my eyes popped in my best colors.”

  • "I have used the lessons she taught me and tools she gave me time and again."

    “Margaret has a true talent when it comes to color. Her color analysis will make you feel beautiful and inspired! I have used the lessons she taught me and tools she gave me time and again.”

    - Leanna

  • "My daughter actually listened to Margaret's advice."

    I brought my teenage daughter to do a color analysis with Margaret. I was amazed how my daughter felt seen and so good about herself. Margaret answered her questions so well, and my daughter actually listened to Margaret’s advice since it wasn’t coming from me! I wish I had this knowledge when I was younger!
