Excelled in client relations and project management, leveraging creative design and teamwork skills.

  • At Brown Thomas Arnotts I have the pleasure of being part of a team in Planet Beauty and the overwhelming support of management in every aspect of my career. I have had the opportunity to bring my own skills to the shop floor while developing new skills and opportunities. I now have an in depth knowledge of beauty products and have done a huge amount of research in my own time and in turn share it with my colleagues and customers. I feel that I have managed to accomplish a lot over a very short period of time and excel in my relationships with our customers and the staff. I enjoy the privilege of being a Mental Health Advocate and have helped many of our staff members with issues both small and large and have given briefs on key issues that can effect any one of us at any given time. I have also been chosen as a finalist in the Extraordinary People Awards in 2023 and 2024 - now that is something I am extremely proud of. I look forward to what I see as a very bright future working with Brown Thomas Arnotts.
