I am an Advanced Skincare Specialist and Professional Makeup Artist with more than twenty years in the Spa industry.  I specialize in combining organic high-nutrient skincare formulas with cutting edge advanced technologies for long lasting results. Skincare has been a life long passion of mine.

Having restored my own skin from aggressive acne,  I am living proof that advanced skin therapies can get results. In my teens and twenties I struggled with cystic acne. I tried dermatologists, over the counter products and prescription drugs to clear my skin. Nothing worked until I went to an Esthetician who helped me understand my skin type and provided me professional products and treatments which began to turn my skin around. It took time, patience and some experimenting to develop the most effective program for my skin. But, eventually, my skin did improve.

Shortly after I took my first Esthetics training, my mom reminded me that when I was a teenager I would spend hours in the bathroom mixing concoctions of products and putting them on my face. I guess I was destined to do this work! I am truly blessed that I am in a career that I love and that allows me to help others. There is nothing more rewarding to me than having the opportunity to "pay it forward" and help someone acheive beautiful, radiant and healthy skin.

Having worked in every aspect of this industry for over 20 years, I have endeavored to create an environment that includes all the luxuries of a high end spa, yet offers intimacy and personal focus for each client. I strive to provide the most current and effective treatments available to help my clients so they may achieve the most beautiful skin possible. I regularly refine my services through on-going, advanced training and education on current skincare trends, cutting edge ingredients and advanced skincare technologies.
