Our Staff

Philipp

I am born and raised in San Diego. I graduated from UCSD in 2007 and have always been asked "What are going do you want to be when you grow up?" To be honest I still don't know yet because I live each day for what that day has to offer. I have worked in the fitness and health industry for the past 5 years and love interacting with people and seeing the results of taking care of yourself while at the same time enjoying life. I have been blessed in acquiring Vivid Tan which used to be San Diego Tan in September 2009. My philosophy in my business is that each employee, client, and member is part of the family. With your help and support Vivid Tan will be the best salon in San Diego if not Southern California. We are continually looking for ways to improve our salon and all feedback is wanted and heard. I look forward to working with each and everyone. Thank you for your business and support!

Katie

Hi, my name is Katie. I am 23 years old from Chico, California. I moved to Sacramento, Ca in 2008 to work at California Academy/A Paul Mitchell Partner School. While working there, I took classes to become an Esthetician. I became a licensed Esthetician in 2009 and also worked in a Spa called Chiara Bella. In August I moved to San Diego, Ca and absolutely love it here.! I enjoy working at Vivid Tan because it is a fun, relaxing and positive environment.

I am 19 years old. I attend San Diego Mesa College. Being athletic and living a healthy lifestyle has always been something I love to do. Ive been involved in cheer and dance since I was a little girl. After getting my general ED done at Mesa i plan on getting my Esthetician license. I love fashion and being in that industry would be a dream job for me. In the future I would love to travel the world.

Lauren

My name is Lauren and I've lived in San Diego for a little over a year now. I went to college in Santa Barbara and graduated in 2009 from UCSB with an anthropology degree. I hope to go to graduate school at SDSU this fall for my teaching credential so that I can become a kindergarten teacher. I grew up in Santa Cruz, California and am basically an all-around California girl. I love to be outdoors such as camping, fishing, hiking, swimming, or simply going to the beach with friends. One of my passions in life is horses. I've owned two horses and have also trained/shown other people's horses. One of my other passions is art. I love to draw in my free time. Music is also an important aspect to my life; I can't imagine life without music. I also volunteer sometimes at the Humane Society when I have free time. I consider myself an easy going person who likes to make the best out of life!
