The Artist Behind the Brush

My love for makeup started long before I ever sat behind a beauty counter — it began in my grandma’s room, playing with her makeup and falling in love with the art of transformation. (Sorry, Grandma — I still owe you a few lipsticks!)

In high school, I’d spend hours in front of the mirror, blending shadows and perfecting brows, not realizing I was planting the seeds for my future career. One day, while walking through the mall, a manager from Laura Mercier stopped me to compliment my makeup and asked if I did others. I confidently said “yes” — even though I hadn’t yet — and that moment changed everything. The next day, I showed up for an interview and met the manager at Estée Lauder. They both wanted to hire me, and two days later, I officially began my beauty journey.

I started my professional career in 2015 at the Estée Lauder counter, where I discovered the joy of helping women feel confident and radiant. I later attended Aveda Institute Milwaukee to earn my esthetician license and continued perfecting my craft in both skincare and artistry.

After moving to Atlanta, I gained hands-on experience with Sephora and MAC Cosmetics, learning the power of technique, artistry, and connection. Atlanta is also where I built my first clientele and fell in love with creating timeless, soft-glam looks that enhance natural beauty.

Now, back home in Milwaukee, I’m reintroducing my brand — Unique Techniques — and focusing on freelance and bridal artistry. My signature style is soft, romantic, and elegant — perfect for clients who want to look like the best version of themselves. From glowing brides to everyday glam lovers, my mission is simple:
to create a luxury experience that feels as good as it looks — timeless, radiant, and uniquely you.

My makeup philosophy

My makeup philosophy is centered on timeless elegance. I believe in enhancing natural beauty rather than masking it — creating soft, flawless glam that feels elevated yet effortless. My goal is for each client to look and feel like the best version of themselves, confident and radiant in every light. I don’t believe in rushed glam—my clients receive an elevated experience where every detail matters: skin prep, premium products, sanitized kit, and custom looks made to enhance, never mask.

How you'll feel

I want every client to leave my chair feeling confident, radiant, and effortlessly beautiful — like the most elevated version of themselves. My goal is for the experience to feel luxurious yet personal, where every detail is intentional and every look timeless.

My ideal client

My ideal client loves a soft, polished glam that enhances her natural beauty. She appreciates clean, flawless skin, neutral tones, and looks that feel both effortless and high-end. She’s confident, classy, and knows that investing in herself is always worth it.

"Unique made me feel absolutely stunning for my event! The makeup was flawless and lasted all night. I highly recommend her services!"
