Summary

I’m Laila Knox, an esthetician student at Shelton State Community College with a deep passion for the beauty industry. My goal is to help people feel beautiful and confident in their own skin, inside and out. As a makeup artist and upcoming esthetician, I make sure to provide excellent customer service to my clients.

With strengths in leadership, communication, and problem-solving, I bring a positive, professional presence to every environment I’m part of. Outside the treatment room, I love creating beauty and lifestyle content on social media, staying active through exercise, enjoying time with my pets, and diving into a good book.
