Was sharing with a friend last night about Gary and the Advanced Academy. What a blessing he was to my career and as a person. Thank you Gary for investing in me, pushing me gently to be my best ever, encouraging me and always showing up I my classroom at shows on the road. I´m eternally grateful

I was sharing with a fellow hairdresser today about attending his school along with three others long ago and decided to check him out and am sad knowing he is no longer with us he truly was an amazing artist and I was blessed to model for him. My deepest condolences in his family´s loss

Thank you Gary for the impact you had on my life. He was a very talented and charismatic teacher. He was also a lot of fun to be around. He mentored me and I rocked the chair and loved the industry. Thanks Gary and Monica.
