I am a qualified beauty therapist with a Diploma in Somatology. I hold international accreditation from CIDESCO and ITEC (Diploma in Physiatrics and Aestheticienne), along with South African Higher Grade, SAASPH.
After completing my studies, I joined Fancourt Hotel and Country Club Estate, Southern Africa’s premier golfing and leisure destination at the end of 2001. Working there was a huge advantage to me as I was exposed to the best training and meeting people from all walks of life.
Being raised by parents who have always had their own businesses, I did not let an opportunity to do the same pass me by. I am proud to say that I was able to start a small salon and build it up into a stable business. I sold the business before moving to New Zealand with my husband in 2008.
I was very pleased to join the Global Beauty team in 2009 as Nimue and OPI Sales Manager for the South Island and later Auckland. I enjoyed working with my clients and helping them in achieving their goals to grow their businesses. It was not until May 2011, that I added Education to resume and worked as product Educator that I fell in love with teaching. I immediately enrolled with the Southern Institute of Technology for an Adult Education Diploma, and graduated in May 2015.
After hard work in sales and education, I made the jump to teaching beauty therapy full time at Elite - School of Beauty & Spa and after a year in class room, I took a break to build a family. I am pleased to say that soon after we welcomed our beautiful, perfect wee girl into our lives, and 2 years later a beautiful wee boy too!
Salon Setup was the product of my first maternity leave, starting with my first course in Brazillian Waxing. After that first one, many more courses followed. Over the last decade, we have added 15 different course over 3 delivery methods, Class Room, Online and Self Directed Learning.
We will continue to search the worlds best courses and build our library every year!
To all my clients:
I am looking forward to working with you, grow your business & educate your staff. You will soon see that I am very passionate about each one of my courses, pride myself in being Brand Neutral but Ingredient-Driven!
See you in a class real soon!
