Robert Sanchez Rodriguez
Client Shopping Specialist
&
Bilingual Associate

Roberto plays a vital role in the daily operations of the center, helping ensure a welcoming and high-quality shopping experience for our Spanish-speaking clients. He proudly shares that he is “Venezuelan by roots and Caribbean by heart” a reflection of the warmth and vibrancy he brings to every interaction.

​

Trained as a hairstylist in Venezuela, Roberto is now working toward obtaining his cosmetology license in the U.S., continuing a craft that has been his passion for over 18 years. For him, styling is more than technique, it’s a way to help people see the best version of themselves. He credits Colombia as a pivotal chapter in his journey, offering him space to grow both professionally and personally.

​

When asked about his greatest success, Roberto doesn’t hesitate: it’s the smile of a client, the quiet moment of gratitude that follows transformation. That, he says, is what makes every step of his journey worthwhile.
