At 45, Maria Rodriguez felt stuck in her corporate accounting job. She had always loved makeup and skincare but never thought she could make it a career. Glam Squad Academy changed everything.
After completing the certification, Maria started offering services part-time while still working her day job. Within a year, demand was so high that she transitioned to full-time aesthetics work. Now 47, she earns more than she did in accounting and absolutely loves what she does.
"Age is just a number," Maria says. "This certification gave me the skills and confidence to completely reinvent myself. I wake up excited to go to work every single day."
