“It’s the end of an era, right?” Jamie O’Banion, CEO and Founder of BeautyBio emotionally asks as she reflects on the recent acquisition of her award-winning beauty and skincare company.

While Jamie has come so far from her early entrepreneurial days of building and fundraising, she remains humble, remembering fondly that girl who "didn't know what she didn't know." Jamie grew up on the science side of skincare feeling very comfortable on the research and development side. Still, when she started her own company, intending to educate people on what is actually in their skincare products, she had no idea what she was doing. While she remembers feeling very alone early on, Jamie is now an empathetic supporter of other women founders and helps them rise. As Jamie passes the milestone of having sold her company in a major acquisition, she looks forward to the future growth of the company and remains committed to its success.
