Penny Burnsis the founder and CEO of Beauty Cast Network, and one of the most prominent voices in the beauty and wellness industry. She had been a part of this industry for over three decades before she created BCN. She was the CEO of a corporation of cosmetology schools that operated at nine locations for 20 years. She also served as the Director of Advanced Education & Industry Relations for one of the largest chains of beauty schools in the country. In addition to that, Penny was the Vice President of the American Association of Cosmetology Schools for seven years and a part of the Advisory Board of Pivot Point International for two years.

Over the course of her professional and personal life, Penny has had to face numerous hurdles that have sought to impede her growth. And one of the most significant among those is the federal investigation that she was forced to become a part of, even though she wasn’t at fault. RubyKlyce, who ran the cosmetology schools along with her, had a gambling problem, which had led her to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars of the federal grant that the schools were receiving. Because Ruby passed away before her conviction, the federal government attempted to convict Penny for the same crime. After going through her business as well as personal life, all they could charge her with was a failure to refund $96, to which she decided to plead guilty rather than risk losing the case in court.
