There was never really another career in the cards for me. From the moment I watched my grandmother apply her lipstick, I was hooked. That spark became a lifelong pursuit of everything beauty, which first led me to Emporia State University where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre. Designing hair and makeup for the stage was an incredible experience, and it taught me how powerful transformation can be. But even then, I found myself drawn back toward the world of beauty makeup and hair. In 2014 I founded The Piercing Beauty, and since then it has been a thrilling journey. Over the years I’ve partnered with photographers, helped brides bring their wedding looks to life, and guided clients through routines and product choices that made them feel confident and radiant. Along the way I deepened my education, became a licensed and insured esthetician, and expanded my services to include advanced facials, corrective skin treatments, lash and brow artistry, and results-driven skincare solutions. I believe every treatment should feel like a blend of pampering and performance — part restorative ritual, part backstage magic. Clients trust me because I combine artistry with advanced technique, and I meet them exactly where they are. When I’m not in my studio chair, you’ll probably find me cuddled up watching a movie with my husband, our two sons, and our two pups. Whether you are preparing for a special event or simply carving out an hour of peace for yourself, I would love to help you look and feel your very best.
