Licensed Esthetician

Summary
I have a deep passion for skincare and love staying up to date with the latest trends, products, and advanced healing treatments. My approach to esthetics blends holistic wellness with traditional techniques, incorporating herbal remedies, facial massage, and energy work to promote relaxation and overall well-being.
Growing up with holistic skincare traditions, I value the connection between internal health and external beauty. During esthetics school, I became highly requested for advanced back stress relief treatments, and my instructor who hadn't requested a student for a treatment in over 10 years personally chose me for her own back treatment. I strive to create personalized, results-driven experiences for clients while continuing to grow and learn in my esthetics career.
