Esthetic Education:
I had the privilege of attending the Aveda Institute to study Esthiology and graduated top of my class with an outstanding sales award to boot!

After graduating, I went thru proficiency training, focusing on working with the Lymphatic System, learning the procedure and modality of Endermology and Iono-Thermie.

I continued educating myself on HIV/AIDS here in Florida as well as Minneapolis.

I traveled to Dallas Texas for advanced marketing training with Med-Surge. The education consisted of guerilla marketing, procedure application, evening, and medical spa protocols.

My most recent education is with Jane Iredale University; Advanced Artistry 303, Corrective Camouflage in March of 2008.

I instructed and implemented curriculum for the clinical skin care program for Florida Career College. If you want to really learn a subject, you teach it! The subjects that I instructed are the following; Hydrotherapy, Aromatherapy, Anatomy, Physiology, Basic to Advanced Skin Care, Sanitation and Sterilization, Bacteriology, Facial Technology, Physiology and Histology of the skin, Skin Disorders and Conditions, Product Chemistry, Epilation, Makeup Techniques, Pre and Post Operative Skin Care, Florida Laws and Rules, HIV/AIDS, Spa/Salon Business, Microdermabrasion, Chemical Peels, Plastic Reconstruction, Surgery Patient Care, Advanced Skin Care, and Camouflage Therapy.

Experience and Knowledge
I have over 16 years of experience in the field of beauty and wellness.

I have launched two medical spas; one in Minneapolis and one in Florida. I also have experience in product development with GloMinerals, a medical grade mineral makeup line.

I started in makeup with Marshell Fields at the cosmetic counters. I have expertise in technique and application of the following over-the-counter makeup lines: NARS, Smash Box, Philosophy, Chanel, Sheseido, Dior, MAC and Aveda.

After Graduating and recieving my license for Esthiology, it opened the medical grade makeup line doors for me. I only work now with professional makeup lines such as Jane Iredale, Youngblood, GloMinerals, and Repechage.
