This week's Member Profile
Tabitha Lehigh- Independent Arbonne Consultant  

 Tabitha Lehigh has almost 20 years experience in various customer service positions in the health & beauty industry.  She is a mom of three & a hair dresser by trade.  She was introduced to Arbonne - a health & wellness network marketing company, almost 2 years ago & has decided to put hair dressing aside for a little while as she builds her Arbonne business.  She educates people about healthy & safe personal care products that will help them to look and feel their best from the inside out; and she teaches them how they can earn an extra stream of income by simply changing where they shop and redirecting their monthly spending into their own business.  This fits well into her life as a mom, and feeds her passion for helping other people to look and feel amazing as they build the life of their dreams!
