About Noel
The oldest of three children, Noel grew up in St. Louis, Missouri and central Florida.
Always interested in other cultures, she was an exchange student in Japan when she was in college. She speaks some Spanish, Japanese, and can introduce herself in Hindi. She has traveled all over the U.S. and hopes someday to travel to Great Britain, India, and revisit Japan.
Noel began learning about henna in 2000, and has actively practiced it since 2006. She teaches kindergarten at a public school in Atlanta, and sponsors a henna art club for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. She has a BA in Art, and a MS in Curriculum and Instruction.
In her spare time, she practices her henna “slinging” skills, seeks out new designs, reads message boards, watches the Sci-Fi channel, and plays an online game or two.
