We had the good fortune of connecting with Kristi Williams and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kristi, how do you think about risk?
Thinking about taking risk as always scared me, I have always wanted to go into esthetics but taking that leap was always scary especially with being a single mother at the time so I didn’t do it. After a couple years with the encouragement of my now husband i took that leap of faith and I’ve got to say without taking that risk I would still be at a corporate job wishing I would’ve done I sooner.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I’ve always been passionate abut helping others feel confident in their own skin. My journey to esthetics wasn’t easy or a straight path. after loosing my corporate job I decided to pursue esthetics as it was a dream of mine for so many years. It took a lot of determination and pushing through challenges to get to where I am today. What sets me apart is my focus on creating a personalized, welcoming experience for every client who walks through my door. I don’t just provide a service I provide a safe space for self care and confidence building.my goal is to educate clients about their skin so they leave glowing and more knowledgeable on their skin. Along the way, I’ve learned that success doesn’t happen overnight. Consistency, patience and building real connections with people are what truly create growth.
