Summary

I recently graduated from New Age Spa Institute, where I majored in Clinical Aesthetics and obtained a certification in Laser and IPL. My passion has always been skin and helping others with the wellness of their skin. I studied at Purdue Global University for three years and majored in Psychology in Addictions. My plan is to use my license in Esthetics (and many other services) so that I can do what I love while going back to college for chemistry and product formulation. I have a background in various things such as early child care, after school care, electronics, sales, chiropractic care, and front desk experience. I love new environments and I am able to learn quickly and apply the knowledge I have to remain successful in my career.
