ASK THE ESTY
WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO ON THE WEEKENDS? I LOVE HOME RENOVATION PROJECTS! I BOUGHT MY FIRST HOUSE WHEN I WAS 23 AND MY PARENTS HELPED ME FLIP IT. NOW, MY HUSBAND AND I ARE IN OUR "FOREVER" HOME AND UPDATING ONE ROOM AT A TIME (FOR MY SANITY AS A MOM!). EVERY WEEKEND WE ALMOST ALWAYS HAVE SOME SORT OF HOME PROJECT GOING ON... PAINTING, DRYWALL, DEMO-ING THE KITCHEN, YARD WORK... I LOVE IT ALL AND I CHERISH THE FACT MY CHILDREN WILL GROW UP KNOWING HOW TO FIX THINGS THEMSELVES.
WHERE DID YOU GO TO SCHOOL? I WENT TO DERBY HIGH SCHOOL AND A HANDFUL OF COLLEGES STUDYING GRAPHIC DESIGN, MARKETING, AND ACCOUNTING WHILE TRYING TO DISCOVER MY DREAM CAREER. LOOKING BACK, ALL OF THOSE INTERESTS EQUALED ENTREPRENEURSHIP! I GRADUATED FROM ERIC FISHER ACADEMY SEPTEMBER OF 2016.
WHY DID YOU PURSUE A CAREER AS AN ESTHETICIAN? I WAS OVER-WORKED AND BURNED OUT IN A CORPORATE JOB. I WAS MAKING GREAT MONEY BUT JUST WASN'T HAPPY AND HATED GOING TO WORK EVERY DAY. ONE DAY I JOKED TO MY FORMER CO-WORKERS THAT I WAS GOING TO GO WORK IN A SPA WHERE IT WAS A RELAXING ATMOSPHERE AND EVERY CUSTOMER LEFT HAPPY. THEN IT SET IN. WHY DON'T I DO THAT?! I'VE LOVED SKINCARE EVER SINCE MY TEENAGE YEARS OF STRUGGLING WITH ACNE AND SENSTIVE SKIN, HAVE A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS BEAUTY RELATED, AND REALLY ENJOY MAKING PEOPLE FEEL BEAUTIFUL. IT WAS A HUGE REVELATION TO REALIZE THIS WAS THE PASSION FOR SERVING PEOPLE I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR ALL ALONG.
WHAT SECRET BEAUTY WEAPON IS IN YOUR PURSE RIGHT NOW? BRUSH ON BLOCK SPF FOR A QUICK AND EASY RE-APPLICATION THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND LANCOME "L’ABSOLU TÔNE UP TINT" FOR MY LIPS.
WHAT IS YOUR COFFEE ORDER? CURRENTLY IT'S AN ICED AMERICANO WITH A SPLASH OF HEAVY CREAM AND SUGAR FREE VANILLA SYRUP, OR I'LL ORDER A PLAIN BREWED CHAI TEA WITH NO LATTE.
