Our next #LauderdaleProud feature is Elizabeth Buffaloe Eskridge!
Elizabeth Eskridge graduated from Halls High School in 2002. She continued her education at the Tennessee Technology Center - Ripley where she earned her Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) credentials.
After a decade of working as an internal medicine and pediatric nurse, Elizabeth transitioned into entrepreneurship by opening The Sandbar & Honeyhole Co., a local tanning salon and gift shop. When asked about her favorite part of her career, Elizabeth said:
“Owning and operating a spray tanning business is just pure fun! There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing the astonished face of someone I’ve spray tanned for the first time. I love making women and men feel better about themselves. It’s a very rewarding feeling.”
We are #LauderdaleProud of you, Elizabeth!
