JUNIOR PRO
Permanent Makeup Artist – Esthetician
Born in the suburbs of Northern VA, my upbringing was immersed in creativity, surrounded by family members with artistic minds and unique talents. I found my outlet in the art of makeup; Most of my free-time spent learning from YouTube tutorials and evolving my craft through experimentation with colors and techniques. Working front desk at various hair salons, I was eventually able to apply my skills to walk-in makeup sessions, bridal parties, and prom season. Recognizing my ability to transform faces, a former boss recommended that I delve deeper into the beauty industry, leading me to pursue a PhiBrow certification in 2016. Building on this commitment, I furthered my expertise by attending school in Vienna, VA, to obtain my license in permanent makeup in 2017.
My pursuit for excellence continued as I moved to Wilmington, NC, earning an esthetician’s license in 2020. Embracing my perfectionist nature and keen eye for detail, I transitioned to full-time work as a brow artist in early 2022, attributing much of my success to these traits. Committed to staying on the forefront of industry trends, I dedicate myself to refining my skills through continuous practice and staying ahead of new techniques.
Despite professional triumphs, my heart never truly connected with the coastal nature of Wilmington. Moving from a sheltered, suburban life to a beach-bum lifestyle left me yearning for new adventures and a more active, fulfilling existence. Now, with my sights set on the stunning mountains of Salt Lake City, I eagerly trade beach lounging for vibrant city living, and I am beyond excited to contribute my skills to the local beauty community and offer clients a blend of experience, artistry, and personalized service.
