MEET THE EDUCATOR AND OWNER

"My plan was to start law school in the fall of 2012 but knew I had to figure out a side hustle to bring in money while I was a full time student. The summer before law school started I banged out the 600 hours for nail school and passed my State board exam to be a licensed nail technician. I had a blast and went to numerous trade shows, networked, competed in several nail competitions and won! I submitted some pictures of my nails into some popular nail publications and they put them into print. I quickly learned this industry was a vast, ever evolving and a ton of fun. I was offered an opportunity to work for one of the top beauty brands in the world, as an educator, and that’s how it all began. I deferred my start date for law school (which I never went back to) and embarked into my nail career. Over the past 12 years I’ve had amazing opportunities to educate, travel, open a couple of salons and now open my own beauty school. It’s all been a wild ride, a total blast, profitable and I never have a dull moment.
This new adventure of owning a beauty school is exciting and I’m looking forward to sharing my knowledge of the beauty industry!"
