For over two decades, Tracy has dedicated herself to the art of hairstyling, a career that nurtured her steady hands and her genuine love for connecting with people. This creative spirit has always extended beyond the salon; she is a lifelong maker who finds true joy in the process of crafting beautiful, tactile things by hand. When she isn't in her studio, Tracy leads a busy life on a 730-cow dairy farm in the heart of Ashburton, South Island, where the rugged beauty of the New Zealand landscape serves as her daily inspiration.The heart of TJ Resin Co. began with a deeply personal journey. After the loss of a cherished pet, Tracy felt a calling to create something more than just a memory. She wanted a way to keep that bond tangible. This led her to the delicate art of resin, where she discovered she could gently preserve photos, locks of fur, and ashes within timeless keepsakes. Today, she uses that same compassion and artistic eye to help others honor their own stories, turning precious fragments of the past into beautiful, lasting memorials to hold forever.
