Summary

I am a highly motivated, patient, reliable, and hardworking single mom with outstanding people skills, who has over 7 years of successful customer service experience. Ive been a stay at home mom for years prior to starting beauty school and becoming a licensed cosmetologist. I’m new in the industry and building my own clientele, part time at Empire Salon LLC and seeking an additional job where I can grow and evolve my value and skills. So I am eager to find a business that I can also add value to and make a positive impact in. I’m a very organized, strong and open minded, ambitious individual who loves to help others feel good about themselves and help make others lives easier. I’m patient, kind and work well with others and perform well as an individual also. I’m an over achiever who pays close attention to detail and always goes above and beyond in my place of work. Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from your team in the near future.
