“I arrived in the skincare field, by beginning in the salon as a shampoo girl and receptionist. Once I graduated from Luba Mera School of Cosmetology in 1999 with a minor in Essential Oil therapy. I began working at one of the first spas in Ontario Canada, which carried the most exclusive skincare lines from Europe. From there I went on to work at the Stillwater Spa for Park Hyatt recognized as on
e of the top 5 spas in Toronto. After a few years, I moved on to the 1 spa in North America The Willow Stream a Fairmont Hotel Spa in Banff National Park. There I became a trainer/instructor and lead aesthetician, I had the luxury of meeting and working with people from all over the world, and the pleasure to work on a variety of Celebrities. I stayed with the spa for 10 years until I one day decided to pack up my bag of beauty goodies and hit the road. As I traveled, I learned new beauty techniques, from influential therapist, that showed me the treatments from their cultures. Creating personal care products from raw ingredients from all of my travels has taught me how they can benefit our skin, not only by applying but how our nutrition effects our skin. I eventually landed in Northern California and went to business for myself, I carried a product line I still use to this day that blends the beauty and organics of nature with the results and effectiveness of science. Over the years I have had many mentors from across the globe that have taught me countries customs and therapies for health, wellness and beauty. I love taking care of people and I love having the privilege of meeting people from every walk of life and from every corner of the globe. Throughout my travels and career I have gained hands on experience from some really incredible aestheticians. Women who taught me how to really take special care of every client, and how to listen to the clients needs. Working in high end spas, I needed to really know about products and ingredients! I love learning about all the ingredients and what they can do for someone looking to really look their best. I love everything about beauty products, from the packaging to the smells,to even hearing peoples descriptions about something. I feel that nothing can pep you up and make you feel great like a great lipstick! So keep feeling radiant and remember beauty is only skin deep!
