Nirmala Lynch is a very special person. Throughout many hardships she has suffered in her life, her faith and strength have helped her succeed. Nirmala was born in India and at 4 1/2 years old, her mother brought her to an orphanage to remove her from her abusive father. She lived there with Mother Theresa knowing that she would never see her family again. Through the teachings of Mother Theresa, Nirmala grew in strength and faith. At age 7, she was adopted and moved to the U.S. Growing up in the United States was difficult because of the cultural and language differences. She attended Special Education classes throughout High School to overcome a learning disability. Nirmala was constantly told she would never succeed, but this only made her grow stronger and more determined to achieve all that she could. She graduated from Newton-South High School, attended Middlesex Community College for short time and began a family of her own. She always wanted to be a Cosmetologist since she enjoys working with people and making them look and feel better about themselves. Nirmala has many outstanding qualities; she is compassionate, fun-loving, hardworking, and dedicated not only to the profession she has chosen but also to her two children whom she cares for by herself. Along with attending Blaine! The Beauty Career Schools, Nirmala is a receptionist at Davis Salon in Newton. Nirmala has a wonderful outlook on life and thanks Mother Theresa and God each day for giving her strength and helping her believe in herself.
