About Me.

I grew up in Red Deer and am happily married to my husband, Brennen. We have two wonderful children who keep our lives full of joy and activity. Family time is everything to us, whether we're watching movies together or cheering on our kids at their various events. My passion for nails has always been strong. I decided to turn that love into a career. I've been doing nails since 2007, and now I’m excited to take the leap into education. My goal is to encourage and support the next generation of nail technicians, sharing my skills and experiences to help them thrive in this creative field.
