    As an aesthetician: I pledge to continually apply myself to advance my talents, my skills, and my knowledge in aesthetics.  I will use this expertise to provide the highest quality service I possibly can.  I will take pride in myself through both my conduct and appearance.  I aspire to look for the opportunity to grow from every experience and bring out the best in myself and others.  I am determined to listen intently to client concerns, focus on their personal needs and to always strive to exceed expectations. I intend to deliver exceptional personalized and professional service.  In addition, I expect to provide an incredibly comfortable and relaxing experience for clients.  It is my passion to help people improve their self image and increase their confidence in the appearance.  Most importantly, my goal is to make a considerable difference in people’s lives.
   Foster is training to become a licensed skin care specialist.  After she completes her studies and passes her state board exams, she will be able to work with clients to treat facial skin to maintain and improve its appearance.  The scholarship will allow her to have more advanced training through the Phoenix Medical.
