Future Advanced Esthetician
My name is Tia! I'm on a mission to follow my dreams and make the world a more beautiful place, one face at a time. I've always believed that when you look good, you feel good, and that's why I've chosen to pursue a career in the beauty, health, and wellness industry as an aesthetician.

The inspiration to become an esthetician stems from my personal journey, one that was sparked by the transformative care of an exceptional esthetician. Seriously, she's amazing! Witnessing the remarkable transformation of my own skin under her skilled hands ignited a passion within me. Her extensive knowledge, coupled with a genuine dedication to her craft, not only improved my skin but also instilled in me a newfound confidence. Her encouragement and guidance inspired me to delve deeper into the world of esthetics, eager to acquire the same expertise and positively impact others' lives as she did mine.
My aspiration to become an esthetician is deeply rooted in the belief that everyone deserves to experience the same sense of empowerment and rejuvenation that I found through skincare. It's a journey driven by gratitude, fueled by passion, and guided by the unwavering desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. -
I hope to attend the National Institute of Medical Aesthetics (NIMA) here in Las Vegas. While touring, NIMA had everything I wanted in a school. NIMA is also the most accommodating to life with the various schedule options that make attending school possible. I'm proud to announce that I have been accepted. Unfortunately, I am just having a difficult time being able to pay for school.

Attending esthetician school marks a pivotal chapter in my journey towards realizing my passion for skincare and holistic wellness. However, the financial constraints I face present a significant challenge in pursuing this dream. Despite my dedication and enthusiasm, I find myself unable to qualify for financial aid due to reaching the cap for undergraduate programs. All I have available is Pell Grant which I'm super thankful for. However, it isn't enough to cover tuition.
Receiving assistance with tuition would be immensely helpful in alleviating the financial strain and allowing me to fully focus on my education. With your generous support, I'll have the opportunity to immerse myself in comprehensive training, gain hands-on experience, and acquire the skills necessary to excel in this field.
Thank you for even considering supporting my journey towards becoming a licensed esthetician.
