(see her instructor bio below!). The beauty industry is more than just a makeup application for this instructor, it’s also giving each girl/woman a confidence boost, affirmation, and support. 

Instructor Bio:  My passion for the art of makeup came to me at the age of 13. It was then I knew I wanted to use makeup to enhance one’s authentic self and for them to feel beautiful from the inside out. I started to do makeup on others right then and there and haven’t stopped since. I received my Esthetician license and opened up a spa in Fargo, ND and by the age of 20, I pursued my dream of moving to Los Angeles.  My biggest accomplishments have been being a key makeup artist for America’s Next Top Model and being a part of the iconic makeup team of Dancing with the Stars.  I was honored to be chosen to work with the best like Tyra Banks, Selma Blair, Sharna Burgess, Adrianna Costa, Candace Cameron Bure, and more. 

Beauty is a feeling to me and I want you to feel beautiful in your own skin.
