About me

Currently, I am in school to complete my cosmetology license. I'm a very motivated, and passionate person. I started this path by working in a salon as a receptionist, where I was given the opportunity to find my passion for the beauty industry. Working at Charlie Mack Salon allowed me to gain hands on salon experience and cusotmer service skills prior to entering the industry. After working at Charlie Mack for a little over a year, I attended Kenneth Shuler School of Cosmetology where I am currently working toward my cosmetology license. Some of my strengths are organization, communication, compassion, time management, and readiness to grow.
