Personal Statement
A passionate and enthusiastic Beauty Therapist with 5 years experience in the spa and beauty industry. Extremely conscientious in every facet of spa therapy, including 5 star quality in customer service, meticulous treatment delivery, detailed product knowledge and superb professionalism; eloquent and committed to absolute customer satisfaction.
Working on a cruise liner in Australia has moulded me into an eloquent and motivational public speaker. Not only have I coaxed my audience into purchasing products and booking treatments, but I currently lead relaxation seminars, removing every day stress to create a place of calm and tranquillity for my audience.
My career has also given me experience in theatrical and media make up. Being a trainee in theatre and film has helped me understand the need to excel in order to progress in a highly competitive industry.
I have had the privilege to work with some exquisite products. I believe I have the passion and professional competence to work along side a busy team of therapists, and serve a high quantity of clientele.
