Qualifications and Achievements

Learning Never Stops

I believe the best groomers never stop learning. Alongside my professional qualifications, I regularly attend specialist courses, seminars and enter grooming competitions to continue developing my skills in dog and cat grooming. Every new qualification and every competition helps me bring more knowledge, confidence and practical experience back into the salon, benefiting every pet I groom.
