TESTIMONIAL
I have had the fortune to work with Sharla who helped us set up VERITA, Singapore's
largest Integrated Wellness Center. She was a pleasure to work with and was extremely efficient at sourcing and managing everything related to the SPA division. Her attention to detail and the quality and dedication were also evident. Sharla is also well connected in her industry and helped us by locating and hiring excellent therapists that keep our clients coming back. I would highly recommend her services as she constantly strives to provide more than is expected.
