Why did you choose this profession? 

"Looking back 8 years ago,I was attending college majoring in Biology which I had high hopes of becoming a dietitian. The universe had other plans for me and I went with what was guiding me. Esthetics, I immediately knew I had to fulfill that space in my heart because deep down, I loved the skin. Naturally, I’m a caregiver and felt this dream of pampering men and women while improving the health of their complexions. After receiving my license in 2019, working in the industry allowed me to dive within myself and understand where I wanted this journey to take me. I have a natural passion for wellness and the more I learned, the more I was intrigued and amazed how the skin influences other organs and our immune system and how our bodies are deeply connected."

 

What’s one thing we can all do to get better skin?

"Look, touch, and feel within our body to understand our skin. By intuitively getting to know what our complexion needs allows us to take careful steps to achieve our goals. We often over-cleanse, over-exfoliate, and dabble in too many products which disrupts our pH level, potentially causing irritation and an impaired barrier."

 

Favorite week night meal? 

"Lately, I have been loving sauteed cabbage, shredded carrots, minced jalapeno, ginger, and garlic with roasted chicken, topped with cilantro and fresh lime. Super fresh and aromatic."
