I've had the privilege of being surrounded by many different cultural influences. Addicted to sports, my love of make-up became prominent during my many years as a figure skater. After exploring careers in radio and hospitality, I decided to take a leap in the beauty industry. I attended the Aveda Institute in Chicago, where I became a licensed esthetician, and fell in love with esthetics. Understanding the training and importance of keeping our skin healthy really assisted me to take my make-up skills to the next level. After that I threw myself into my career and have never looked back.
