"Once upon a time, I suffered from  acne at the age of 12 years of age.  It started out on my forehead. By the age of 14, it spread to my cheekbones and by 16 it was everywhere.  I begged my mom to bring her to a dermatologist.  I applied topical medication and was prescribed accutane.  Nothing helped to alleviate the symptoms of my acne permanently.  
 

“When you're different, sometimes you don't see the millions of people who accept you for what you are. All you notice is the person who doesn't.”  

After I received my first professional facial from a Licensed Esthetician, I gained more confidence in myself.  My skin became much clearer and produced less blemishes.  I started booking facials at least once a month and cut juice and soda out of my diet.  I discovered that my acne was specifically hormonal and cystic.  Acne can also be triggered by stress.   Practicing yoga, drinking plenty of water and maintaining a exercise regimen helped to diminish my breakouts.  
 

“Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing.” 

I decided that I was not ready to go away to college and was very passionate about studying Skincare.  I decided to go to Aveda Institute  in New York City and treated clients in their clinic.  I also performed facials on my own skin to clear up my own acne and experiment with products.  I was able to build the trust and respect of my clients and sell them products that actually worked wonders for their skin types.  

“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection” 
 

I decided to apply for a position in a Spa in Garden City, NY after I graduated from Aveda Institute.  I was employed there for over a year and built a huge following of clients that trusted my expertise.  I have broadened my horizons practicing waxing and marketing at the European Wax Center in NYC. I  am happy with my independence at Angel's Aromatic Massage.  I am a young entrepreneur! 

 

 In October of 2018,  my ultimate dream came true.  I performed a Facial and Body Treatment on my favorite Victoria's Secret model and also performed a treatment on her beautiful mom.   She was flawless, glowing and looked spectacular walking confidently with her head high in the 2018 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show!
