Nail Tech
Instructor: Erin Hardy
About the Instructor:
I started in the nail industry at 16, earning my nail tech and cosmetology licenses before graduating high school. I worked in salons through college, then became a health teacher after earning my undergraduate degree. Later, I completed a graduate degree in curriculum design to be the best teacher I can be. Combining my passion for nails and education has been a dream come true, and I am grateful to help students launch their own careers in this industry. I hope you find as much joy and fulfillment in this journey as I have.
