Summary
I am a professional productive dog groomer currently working at petsmart in Woodinville. I recently moved to Edmonds, and have been looking to work in the community. In my nearly 5 years of grooming dogs, I have gained experience working with a large number of breed standard cuts and coats types. I take pride in my work, and always strive to learn more. I myself own a miniature poodle, Gidget, and enjoy doing creative grooms on her. The safety and well being of the dogs is my highest priority, as well as relationships and professionalism with their owners and my coworkers.
