Hey there! I’m a Rogue Valley native and proud veteran nail tech (rocking this gig since 2008, but honestly doing mani/pedis on my family since I was 6).
My happy place? Behind the nail table, turning fingers and toes into works of art while you spill the tea (or just vent about whatever’s on your mind). My soul is nourished by helping others, especially when I can play a role in enabling them to feel comforted and empowered.
Professionally, I am passionate about more than just breathtaking nail artistry. I am also a private educator for nail technicians, a bespoke business coach for beauty professionals, and an enthusiastic teacher of ethical practices and reputation management.
My upcoming program, Radiant Reputations, is designed to help nail pros build thriving, drama-free careers grounded in integrity. I don’t gatekeep—ever. There is more than enough space, success, and clientele for all of us. Keep an eye out for upcoming announcements!
Self-care isn’t just part of my profession—it’s my personal hobby and I love inspiring others to prioritize it, too. As a deeply nurturing (and yet silly) soul, I’m the friend who is ready to laugh, cry and celebrate with you, all while bringing your nail fantasies to life.
Calamity Jane was a real frontier woman who lived life on her own terms in the Wild West days–independent, confident, and capable. She stepped beyond the expected roles for women at the time, often wearing pants, packing heat, and not giving a single hoot what people thought about her.
She looked out for the vulnerable folks in her community, including women, children, and the elderly, defending the meek and nursing the sick. She romanced Wild Bill Hickock, the local lawman, and in her later years, took her remarkable shooting skills on the road, performing as a sharpshooter and trick rider in Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show.
The connection feels personal for me for a few reasons:
Calamity Jane spent her life fiercely protecting those she loved and serving her community with devotion. She was known as a generous and trustworthy person, the kind you can count on no matter what. I’d like to think there’s a little spark of her courage and heart in me.
After all, “I figure if a girl wants to be a legend, she should go ahead and be one.” – Calamity Jane
