The Switch

Educated in India, Elisha is a computer science engineer who graduated with A+ in her class, interned with Microsoft and worked with SAP Labs India. Inspite of a great job and salary, Elisha knew she wanted to do more. She joined her parents business of salons and academies. The idea was to gain some business experience and then do MBA(Masters of Business Administration). However, a crazy idea struck Elisha. She started enjoying working with clients and decided she wanted to run for International hair and beauty competitions. This came as a shock and pleasant surprise to her support system who completely stood with her.

Competition Pathway

Like any competent skill, hairdressing and beauty industry requires high level of skill. Elisha did her first competition in 2013 at Asia Cup, Taiwan followed by Hairworld 2014 in Frankfurt, Germany. Elisha trained herself from 10 different trainers from 10 different countries and has been learning since. The journey hasn't stopped for her. As of now, she has won OMC International Achievement Medal 2019 in Paris and Creative Hairstyling in Asia Cup 2015 at Malaysia. She is licensed Instructor and Cosmetologist and her trained students have won both National and International competitions. Today, Elisha is the Juror for OMC International Competitions and trained other professionals to become efficient Jurors.

Initiatives with Government

She has also initiated several campaigns where under-priviledged women were trained and motivated to work in beauty industry.
