Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I’ve been a marketing representative For 8 years. What sets me apart from others is that I know how the business side of Entrepreneurship goes. My current job helped me to get to where I am professionally which made it easy for me to transition into becoming an beauty entrepreneur. Having 13 years of customer service experience I’ve learned happy customers build a better reputation and can help your business expand even more through word of mouth. I’m most proud of myself because I never gave up! During the time of no customers, or no sales & no views on social media,I had to learn to pray, reset & relaunch 3 times but I had to keep going. On this journey I’ve learned it’s not easy but if you have a brand, you have to believe in it! Because if You don’t believe your brand. Who will?

My brand Virtuous Beauty gives confidence to all women. My products were designed to make you feel and look beautiful! The virtuous woman she speaks with wisdom and faithful instructions. She serves God with her heart,mind and soul Prov 31:26 So Queens hold your head high and know that you are beautiful and you have purpose!
