A typical day in my life includes…
a healthy breakfast, a walk with my dog, airbrushing lovely clients, and then a glass of wine with dinner!
I was born…
in Chicago, but I grew up in Wisconsin. I’m definitely a Cheesehead.
My favorite thing about Arizona…
is 9 months of beautiful weather and the active lifestyle that it allows.
I’m listening to…
I’m switching it up today, currently listening to Sublime.
My family…
is small but close.
One thing I cannot live without…
my Australian Shepard mix, Molly.
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a mom! I still do, eventually.
I’m inspired by…
random acts of kindness!
The one person who motivates me is…
tons of people motivate me! When I see someone working hard chasing their dreams, I find myself feeling more motivated to chase my own.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
animal abuse; from factory farming to the over population of animals caused by breeding/not spaying or neutering your pet.
My first job was…
cleaning horse stalls at my neighbor’s barn. I was saving up for my own horse!
My favorite escape…
anywhere with an ocean view.
I’m currently working on…
finishing school.
Always…
be kind to everyone!
Never…
wear a white shirt to your spray tan appointment.
My favorite part of being an Airbrush Artist is…
knowing how awesome & bronze everyone looks after that first shower! I was a customer here for about 4 years before I began working as an Airbrush Artist. I often needed some good color before a photo shoot or event and because I don’t like to spend much time laying in the sun, I found this was quicker and better color than I could get on my own! Also, it’s guilt free!
