At one time, she led a team of 250+ estheticians nationally as the director of esthetics for an iconic luxury spa chain with over 30 locations. She was also the regional operations director of four full-service spa/salons, including two inside Saks Fifth Avenue, and the education executive for the iconic brow artistry brand Anastasia Beverly Hills.

Seeing a gap in the spa and wellness space for support, professional development, resources, and education for those of diverse backgrounds, Toshiana founded the\xa0Network of Multicultural Spa and Wellness Professionals\xa0(NMSWP) to be the gap filler. More than that, she wanted to create a community that feels like a \u201ctribe to thrive\u201d and to be a beacon of light and excellence for the spa and wellness industry. \xa0
