Distinctives: I have been a fully licensed cosmetologist since 2001, and received my first lash certification from Novlash in 2004. After mastering the art of synthetic eyelash application, I started building my dream of owning a salon to be able to perform and teach the best techniques developed over the years. I opened the doors of Vixen in 2013 with my lifelong learning platform and am thrilled to be able to coach the members of my team who have a passion for learning and a desire to stay up to date with the ever changing beauty industry.

I believe strong technical skills, professionalism, and having the ability to connect with people are the keys to success in this industry. When you put your mind and energy into achieving your goals, the possibilities are endless. For me there is nothing more rewarding than helping and empowering others. I truly love what I do!
