Summary
A dedicated cosmetologist with a passion for making a positive impact on other's lives. Recognizing that many people were never taught essential makeup skills, I am strongly committed to empowering them by providing education on makeup and its transformative effect on daily life and self-confidence. Eager to continuously learn and enhance my own skills, I bring extensive experience in teaching, customer service, and leadership.
