She was always fascinated how a little bit of make up could transform a face and could make anyone look like anything they wanted. She loved the confidence it gave people. When she was 20 she was hired at Sephora in Wellington, Florida and it just re-affirmed her love of make up, she worked for the famous beauty company for about 4 years, always taking in the all of the product knowledge and techniques that she would see her co-workers do on their clients.

On working with Chadwick and Igor...
"I know the love and devotion that they both put into their work, their salon and their employees. They have kind of made all of us into a diverse family, each one of us having our strengths and weaknesses. They truly are great human beings that just want to see everyone happy and satisfied, they also know the potential that we have and what we can achieve. Someone who is willing to work with raw material to make it into something polished and beautiful is a true rarity to see nowadays."
