Summary
Passionate and dedicated Beauty Therapist with over 5 years of experience in the beauty industry, specialising in advanced skin treatments. Renowned for delivering personalised care that helps clients feel confident and empowered in their own skin. My journey began with personal skin challenges, which ignited a deep commitment to helping others achieve real, lasting results. I'm a highly motivated and adaptable professional with a strong work ethic and excellent interpersonal skills. Known for thriving in fast-paced environments, I work well independently and quickly master new skills. I consistently meet company goals through organised, reliable practices and remain calm and focused under pressure. I'm always eager to embrace new challenges that support both personal growth and a positive team dynamic.
