I’m 20 years old and pursuing a career as an esthetician. I’ve always been super interested in skincare and love learning about the different ingredients in products and how they work for your skin. I’m really into makeup and everything about the beauty industry. I also love learning about the world and recently had the chance to travel, which is something I’d love to do more of in the future!

I chose to become an esthetician after I was unable to continue with university, but it honestly turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It gave me the opportunity to follow my passion for helping others, learn about the beauty industry, and discover how I can assist people with the health of their skin and hair.

I’ve struggled with oily, acne-prone skin since sixth grade. I remember always wondering why my skin wasn’t like everyone else’s. It became one of my biggest insecurities. Over the years, I tried everything, from prescriptions to natural remedies, and eventually found a way to overcome my insecurities. Now, I see my skin as something I love and feel confident in. I want to help others feel the same way about their skin!
