Summary
As an Esthetician with over 10 years experience, I have worked in every spa setting and am deeply passionate about what I do. I have worked in fast paced sales driven environments and medical settings where being meticulous is at the at-most importance. I have worked with teens doing acne boot camps in the beginning of my career to working at a plastic surgeon's office solely focused on aging and medical treatments. It has taught me so much. Today, I am a very well rounded confident Esthetician. I am driven by sales and results to have the best outcome for my clients.
