From HVAC to High Style: Entrepreneur Opens Boutique in Downtown Glenpool

GLENPOOL, Okla. – January 16, 2026 – A new chapter for downtown Glenpool is set to begin tomorrow as local entrepreneur Cassie Pound, a name synonymous with successful home service companies, makes a bold entry into the world of fashion. Modern Reign Boutique will celebrate its grand opening on Saturday, Jan. 17, bringing a new retail concept to a community eager for local shopping opportunities.

The new shop, located at 148 W. Main St., Suite B, represents more than just a new storefront; it’s the latest venture from a seasoned business owner known for building customer-focused operations from the ground up. For Pound, this pivot from plumbing and garage doors to apparel and accessories is a deeply personal project aimed at empowering women and revitalizing her hometown's main street.

A New Reign for Downtown

The anticipation for Modern Reign’s opening is palpable in Glenpool, a growing suburb of Tulsa where residents have long expressed a desire for more diverse, local retail options. The downtown area, characterized by a mix of service businesses and local eateries, has a notable gap in contemporary fashion—a gap Modern Reign intends to fill. The boutique’s arrival is seen by many as a significant step in the ongoing revitalization of the city's commercial core.

Grand opening festivities are scheduled from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and will feature a ribbon-cutting ceremony, exclusive sales, giveaways, and refreshments, inviting the entire community to celebrate the launch. The event marks the culmination of Pound’s vision to create a stylish, welcoming space that caters to the modern woman's everyday needs.

Modern Reign is designed for shoppers seeking on-trend looks that don’t compromise on comfort or practicality. The boutique’s commitment to inclusivity is a cornerstone of its brand, offering a comprehensive size range from XS to 3X. This strategy directly addresses a common frustration for many shoppers who struggle to find fashionable options in a full spectrum of sizes outside of major metropolitan areas.

From Blue-Collar Roots to a Boutique Vision

Cassie Pound’s entrepreneurial journey is anything but conventional. Before curating clothing collections, she was building service-based empires in traditionally male-dominated industries. In 2014, she and her husband, Oscar Pound, founded Quality Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric, a company that has since become a trusted name in home services across the Tulsa area, known for its focus on customer satisfaction and reliable work. In 2025, she expanded her portfolio by launching Stellar Garage Doors, a full-service garage door repair and replacement company.

Her experience building these successful companies provided her with a unique perspective on business, leadership, and community. It was this journey as a business owner, mother, and leader that inspired her to create a brand for women who, like her, navigate multiple roles with strength and style. Modern Reign is her statement that ambition and success can flourish anywhere.

"You do not have to leave a small town to think big," Pound stated. "Modern Reign is about owning where you are and where you are headed. It's about showing up with confidence in every season of life."

This philosophy is woven into the fabric of the boutique, which aims to be more than a place to buy clothes. It’s a testament to Pound’s belief in the potential of small towns and the people who live in them.

Style with Substance and Community at its Core

The ethos of Modern Reign extends far beyond the hangers. It’s positioned as a lifestyle brand championing quality, individuality, and the idea that personal style is a powerful form of self-expression. The carefully curated collections are meant to help women feel put-together and confident without feeling like they have to try too hard.

By frequently refreshing inventory based on seasonal trends and direct customer feedback, the boutique plans to stay dynamic and responsive to its clientele. This customer-driven approach is a hallmark of Pound’s previous business successes, where listening to the market and adapting accordingly proved critical.

Pound’s vision for the boutique is deeply intertwined with a commitment to her community. She sees the business not just as a personal passion project, but as a vehicle for local investment and growth. By choosing to establish her new venture in downtown Glenpool, she is making a tangible investment in the area's economic future.

"I see Modern Reign becoming a brand that stands for resilience, growth and belief in places and people that deserve more attention," Pound explained. "By building locally, my goal is to encourage others to reinvest in their communities, create jobs and support long-term growth."

This mission to foster local prosperity and connection sets Modern Reign apart. It’s a retail experience with a purpose, aiming to create a hub where women can find both a great outfit and a sense of belonging, proving that world-class ideas and community-first values can thrive together.
