Originally, a southern belle from a small town in southeast Arkansas, Dereka got her start by simply playing in different shades of make up as a child. Becoming a Financial Accountant was the first thing on her mind after moving to Dallas. After realizing her true calling in the beauty industry, she used her funds and focus on her dream of starting KMMB. Dereka used every experience as a learning opportunity for both personal and professional growth in the makeup and beauty industry. She is now known as a business woman who decided to follow her entrepreneurial dreams, and as a result, KMMB was born. As the company grows, so will the number of products offered by KMMB.
