Sophie Leatherby

I am a well presented, confident, and reliable multi-tasker with a record of building positive relationships between myself, colleagues, clients. I graduated from Iver Makeup Academy with an advanced certificate in Hair and Makeup Artistry in December 2019. I made the decision to transition from studying law to studying hair and makeup and have not looked back since. I am first aid trained and open to all opportunities I am presented with in order to build a successful career for myself.
