She is the youngest of 3 children and was raised by a strong single mother. As a child she showed an interest in teaching and loved everything related to makeup. After high school she enrolled in Beauty School. While in school, her artistry skills flourished and she was found to be naturally talented at eyebrow shaping. Ultimately she became a professional esthetician and makeup artist.  She then worked with Christian Dior cosmetics and has spent 17 years working with prestigious cosmetic brands, and 12 years as a Senior Executive sales manager for a multi-million dollar company. She was also a state board educator for future licensed estheticians. In 2018 she obtained her permanent make-up certification. During the pandemic she was no longer fulfilled in the corporate realm and started her own business dedicated to all things eyebrows. She then further ventured into the paramedical space and works with women and men that are survivors of trauma, cancer, alopecia, areola reconstruction, SMP, scar camouflage etc.  Her slogan is “beauty should be used to illuminate our inner beauty and not mask it!”     References ACOG.
