LTEC April Student of the Month: Lillian Carrillo

[April 16, 2026] 

LTEC is proud to recognize our April Student of the Month, Lillian Carrillo. Lillian is a standout senior in the Cosmetology program. Lillian was nominated by her instructor, Vanessa Komnick, she consistently demonstrates what it means to be a dedicated, positive, and driven student. Lillian is the daughter of Shawna and Dakota Martinie.

According to Komnick, Lillian comes to class each day prepared, motivated, and ready to learn. She maintains a positive attitude and is always willing to step outside of her comfort zone to try something new, and essential quality in the ever-evolving field of cosmetology. “What truly sets her apart is her willingness to support and encourage others,” Komnick shared, “Lillian is always quick to lend a helping hand to her classmates.”

Lillian’s commitment extends beyond the classroom. She balances her academic responsibilities with a strong work ethic at her job at Subway, showing the same level of dedication and responsibility in all that she does. Whether in school or at work, she leads by example through her positivity and determination.

She chose to pursue cosmetology to gain a better understanding of the art of hair styling, and she has embraced every opportunity to grow her skills. One of her favorite parts of LTEC is the extended class periods, which allow her to build stronger connections with her teachers and dive deeper into hands-on learning.
