About me

I am a Master Esthetician just recently graduated from The Salon Professional Academy in Washington, DC, where I continued to refine my skills and deepen my knowledge of advanced skincare and wellness practices. I also hold an Associate’s Degree in Specialized Business from the Tom Savini Special Makeup Effects Program in Monessen, Pennsylvania, which provided me with a strong foundation in both creative artistry and business.

Over the past 10 years, I have gained extensive hands-on experience in the beauty and wellness industry, complemented by advanced education, specialized training, and masterclasses across a wide range of disciplines. My professional journey has also included living abroad, where I expanded my global perspective and continued to grow my expertise by learning from diverse techniques, cultures, and industry professionals. This combination of formal education, real-world experience, and international exposure has shaped my well-rounded, client-focused approach to beauty and self-care.
