What’s your favorite service to perform?
“My favorite service to perform is Brows, as they are one of the first things someone notices when they look at your face. Having great brows is life changing.”Soft/natural or bold/defined?
“I’m a big believer in natural and soft for anything PMU related. Less is more. PMU is not meant to replace regular makeup, but to enhance your natural beauty.”What’s your favorite part of the PMU process?
“My favorite part of the PMU process is making someone feel beautiful in their own skin. Seeing a client’s face light up, or happy tears when seeing their reflection in the mirror after a service is finished is the most rewarding experience.”What’s something about your work you’re proud of right now?
“I’m proud of being able to customize every set of brows, eyeliner, or lip blushing based on what each client is looking for. I do not offer a “one size fits all” style. Everything is based on what will suit your needs and what is going to age well.”What should first-time clients know before booking?
“Something to know before booking is each service is a 2 session process. After your initial session, there is a 6 week perfecting session. Clients will then typically come back in 1-3 years to “refresh” their PMU.”Describe your work in three words.
“Meticulous, confidence-boosting, timeless”What styles are you most excited to learn and work toward?
“I’m in love with black and grey realism tattoos, and hope to one day master that style (I have a long way to go) however, I have been enjoying the journey of learning simple line work and shading.”What’s something you’re proud of in your progress so far?
“I’m proud of being able to take constructive criticism from my mentor and other artists at the show, and apply it to my work.”

“Helping to heal those fear based feelings around piercings. I know they hurt, and they’re scary. I want to make you as comfortable as possible.”What’s something about your work you’re proud of right now?
“I’m proud that I have been able to build new relationships with the community in Hudson, and provide them with my skillset and knowledge.”What should first-time clients know before booking?
“I’m not as serious as a lot of people, so if you’re ready to laugh and have fun, get that booking in.”Describe your work in three words.
