About
Hello! I’m Andrea. I didn’t pick the esthetics industry as much as it screamed out and chose me. While working to support myself through college, I worked as a receptionist in a high end salon where I became increasingly fascinated with the science of skin care and the total difference that can be achieved in one’s skin through the work and guidance of an educated esthetician. I constantly asked the Esthetician questions, began to absorb all of the information and realized how passionate about skin care I was. I decided not to enroll at Eastern for my third year, transferred to a local community college to receive my AA degree then moved back towards Seattle where I attended the Euro Institute of Skincare.
I find it amazing how much helping someone with troubled skin cannot just make their appearance much more beautiful, but can change their self-esteem and empower them with confidence! Once I had decided that this industry was the one for me, invoking a deep passion and a great desires to not only help people but to give them a totally luxurious experience at the same time I jumped in with both feet.
I am very glad that I followed my heart and became an esthetician as everyday has been rewarding. The lives that I helped enrich by helping people feel as beautiful on the outside as they feel on the inside has been incredibly rewarding. Even if you don’t have problem skin, facials can be one of the relaxing and luxurious treats you can give yourself. Facials can also serve to make skin more youthful in appearance or simply slow the process of aging skin. I LOVE what I do, I like to educate my clients and I am committed to every client leaving feeling satisfied, pampered and beautiful.
I believe it is important to stay updated on new products, treatments, and ingredients. I attend classes, workshops and seminars throughout the year to expand my expertise and better serve my clients. Below is a list of which I have attended:
