2020 - Manicurist
Now: A licensed manicurist, salon owner and instructor.

"Cosmetologist turned Manicurist turned to Instructor. Graduated from UCAS University of Cosmetology Arts & Sciences in 1994 for Cosmetology but had to put my dreams on hold due to financial struggles. After 26 years, I finally pursued my passion for nails and graduated as a Manicurist in April 2020. Got my license and opened my own salon in May 2022! Added Esthetician to my resume 4 years later and started teaching in November of the same year. Currently juggling both teaching and running my salon. It's a whirlwind but I love every minute of it! Let's connect and share our beauty journey together!"
