About Me

 

You will always encounter the authentic version of me—I strive to find meaning and beauty in every person and experience I meet.  My passion for helping others is deeply ingrained in me, stemming from the numerous challenges I’ve faced throughout my life.  Although I don’t always feel like it, through the strength in my faith I AM a survivor and an overcomer.   But the truth is I have spent much of my life struggling to recognize my own worth and beauty, often influenced by abuse and the perceptions of others negativity since being a small child.  The path to get where I am today leads to a constant battle with imposters syndrome.

 

Why the Beauty Industry… truth is if you knew me before I began this journey, glam makeup, hair and nails is something I have used to help myself, family and friends feel more confident in but never something that I truly felt “called to”.  Makeup can offer us a boost of confidence and its nice to wear as we wish. But this small-town country girl I never felt I had what I would call a unhealthy mindset that “I needed makeup”.  Back in my early 30’s, is when I began losing my own natural eyebrows.  Seemingly out of nowhere I became more and more self-conscious without makeup on, even rather casual public settings. The thought of a quick run to the store, now left me feeling I “needed” to add a little something to my brows and a quick swipe of mascara before going out the door! By my late 30’s I lost so much of my brows, I now found myself (typically a social butterfly) now not going places I loved!  We live near a beautiful lake that we enjoy every summer.  These voices in my own head began to speak to my feelings of insecurities.  I didn’t want to be seen swimming at certain places or attending summer fun events because my makeup would be melted away and the mental game that played was so REDICOULUS…. yet, they were ridiculously real.

 

LET ME BE CLEAR….. While NONE of us require makeup, PERIOD!!   It does undoubtedly help to enhance our confidence just like a great haircut, a new set of well-groomed nails, or a stylish wardrobe change does.  I never dreamed the impact it would have on myself, let alone giving other women such a small gift would have the HUGE impact that it truly gives!  The tears and hugs I’ve shared through the years of doing this is something I will FOREVER hold dear to my heart.

 

I take great joy in using my skills and talents to help others recognize the inherent beauty that exists within us all. By choosing me as your artist, you can rest assured you’re selecting someone who genuinely cares about you and the quality I provide. I am dedicates to helping others in our communities. I believe our fundamental purpose on this earth is to love one another, to assist each other in thriving and growing through not only the pretty parts of life but the ugly challenges we all face as well.  May we all use our gifts to enrich each other’s journeys.

 

My Training: 

Licensed and Multi-Certified Artist of Missouri

Wanting to provide a high-quality services with the most REALISTIC results, I discovered the exceptional artistry offered by the world-renowned PhiBrows Academy. I appreciated their outstanding training in permanent makeup, specializing in their stunning Microblading program along with their rigorous testing and quality standards for their products that are proven for longevity, UV resistance, and minimal risk of color shifting—issues that are pretty common with other lower quality pigment lines on the market.  I was determined to receive the best training possible to achieve the results she wanted for my clients, aiming for outcomes that closely mimic natural looking results and healed color longevity.

 

  My passion for this industry is rooted in my experiences as a customer FIRST! I know what it feels like seeking these services for myself, and the fears that come with it… so I truly understand the concerns and excitement that accompany the process.  

 

I believe every person deserves high-quality services and products at a reasonable price. I am is not a “salesperson” and do not pressure clients into services just to make a profit.
