Summary

Dynamic Image Consultant with a proven track record at my salon Senses, Inc., regularly recognized and rewarded for challenging and improving industry standards for over a decade. Mission-oriented development of time-management strategies, increased retail sales, and exceptional customer service remain the constant focus of team members. Adept at creative problem-solving and relationship-building, we nurtured long-term client loyalty while developing and forecasting industry trends. Loyalty to a process of continuous improvement and being highly skilled at ensuring client satisfaction and retention revolves around the continued education and growth of team members.

I am ready to apply these skills to a new challenge. Often multi-tasking and gifted at quickly calming difficult situations many positions spark my interest. Experience has made me a passionate advocate for those unable to speak for themselves, especially animals. As a candy striper, I discovered that adapting to people of early/advanced age, acute/ chronic illness, or cognitive decline was easy for me. Working with animals and their guardians is a lifelong calling and passion. Additional experience includes volunteering for specialty clinics and for Hospice Savannah. Evolving skills in management, problem-solving, and collaboration lead to a unique perspective. I am honored to have been recognized for adaptability and my committed approach to creating quality outcomes in every situation.
