Sweet Smell Of Success… Athlete Also An Entrepreneur At Age19
Daily Progress:
It began simply as a hobby and has grown into her passion. Make that one of her passions.
Between classes, softball, her music and, yep, even some offseason club ice hockey, North Andover’s Janay Walsh (photo), a senior at the Governor’s Academy, just may have concocted the next hot fragrance.
‘Janay’ | the fragrance | is popular on campus and beyond.
‘It’s just my own fragrance that I came up with,’ said the senior, who will play ice hockey next year at Salve Regina College in Newport, R.I. ‘A lot of the kids are wearing it now, and even some of the teachers.’
In describing ‘Janay,’ the Governor’s hockey captain and MVP says it is ‘delicate, a little bit like roses in a way. It’s a little musky, but not too strong.’ Early returns on the fragrance are promising.
‘It’s different, and I like it,’ said Krista Lamontagne of Lawrence a student at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. ‘I wear if often and my friends seem to like it, too.’
Always interested in fragrances, Janay, 19, went to her dad John about the idea. Mr. Walsh owns the famous line of Elizabeth Grady day spas, and he was all too happy to have another entrepreneur in the family.
‘We talked about it, and I just tried to think about what I liked about all the different fragrances I had tried before,’ said Janay, a pitcher and first baseman for the Governors. ‘I always like to take advantage of the go-getter in him. And this was a chance.’
Right now, ‘Janay’ is in the pre-marketing stage. The price is set at $60 per bottle. More.
