Bramlet brings a uniquely comprehensive perspective to the role, having started her journey with Frenchies as a studio manager over 10 years ago before becoming a multi-unit franchisee and most recently serving as Director of Training and Operations. She currently owns and operates two Frenchies locations in Minnesota and will continue to run those studios while stepping into her new leadership position.

Early on, she was drawn to Frenchies' clean, people-first approach and quickly became immersed in the brand as it began expanding.
After managing one of Frenchies early locations, Bramlet relocated to Minnesota, where she purchased the Frenchies Modern Nail Care studio in Lakeville in 2018. She went on to play a key role in the brand's growth, helping open new locations alongside the founders and later acquiring a second studio in Woodbury.
In her role as Director of Training and Operations, Bramlet helped build many of the brand's standard operating procedures and worked closely with franchisees across the system, giving her a deep understanding of the business from both the franchisor and franchisee perspectives.

As Brand President, Bramlet will oversee systemwide operations, franchisee support and brand growth initiatives. Her experience working closely with franchisees will guide her leadership approach, with a continued focus on strengthening relationships, enhancing operational efficiencies and maintaining Frenchies' strong culture. Looking ahead, Bramlet plans to focus on advancing franchisee support and continuing to elevate the brand's standards across all locations.
