OUR TEAM
My journey in the beauty industry began when I was just 17 years old, helping out at my mother’s nail salon in Brick Township. I started with answering phone calls and booking appointments on weekends and school breaks — but over time, I found myself behind the chair, giving pedicures and learning everything I could just by watching my mom. Nails quickly became more than a weekend job; they helped put me through nursing school, and I eventually became an ICU nurse. But when I became pregnant with my first child, I realized I wanted a career that offered more flexibility — something that would allow me to spend more time with my baby girl while still doing what I love. In August 2024, I made the decision to open my own studio, officially starting in November. My daughter was born in January 2025, and having my own space has given me the freedom to balance both motherhood and my passion for nails. In June 2025, my mom joined me at the studio — bringing our story full circle. Together, we’ve been building our clientele and growing something truly special: a warm, welcoming space rooted in family, tradition, and care.

My journey in the nail industry started long before I picked up a brush myself. Back in 2007, when I began my freshman year of high school, my mom owned a nail shop. Every weekend and during school breaks, I was there — helping her, learning, and slowly falling in love with the craft. Some of my earliest memories are of going to work with my mom, watching her carefully work on clients’ nails with such precision and care. Eventually, I began learning from her hands-on, and by the time I was 17, I started working professionally. Over the years, I’ve worked all over South Jersey, gaining experience, building relationships, and growing my passion. While attending college and pursuing my degree in nursing, doing nails became more than a job — it paid my way through school. After graduating, I became a nurse and worked in the field for two years. But after having my baby girl, I realized I needed more flexibility in my life — and more than that, I wanted to return to what I truly love. While 7 months pregnant, I took a leap of faith and opened my own studio. It wasn’t easy, but it felt right. By April, just months later, I expanded my space — and the most special part? My mom is now working alongside me again, just like we did years ago. This studio is more than a business. It’s a full-circle moment. It’s a legacy built with love, sacrifice, and family.
