Project Description

Hello all!

My name is Ryan Baker, better known as “The Nail Doctor.” I am 20 years old, a full time college sophomore and I currently run my own nail studio.

I started my journey as an entrepreneur at 17 years old, when I enrolled at my local nail academy fresh out of high school. Throughout my journey, I have powered through adversity from not only my peers, but the struggle of balancing a full time college career with a business. I love the fact that I was able to turn my passion into a career, and I have been fortunate enough to make invaluable strides within the beauty industry.

I strive to develop a real connection, and influence a positive change in each person's life I seat in my chair. I am more than a nail technician, I seek to be a role model for future young entrepreneurs, as well as provide a service that goes beyond the scope of a manicure. Recently, I took the opportunity to expand my business into a full scale, luxury beauty and nail salon. I recently closed on my building, and I have assembled my dream team of service providers! Throughout this process, I have been paying for everything out of my own pocket. I am passionate, dedicated, and hard working beyond my years. I want to thank you all in advance for taking the time to read my story and your support means the world to me.
