A typical day in my life includes…
waking up at 6am when my little hops in our bed begging for waffles and motorcycle (meaning Madagascar, the movie). We get up, I make breakfast for the baby, coffee and lunch for my man and myself. Gunner and I head to preschool drop off and then I head home to make another cup of coffee. I throw on several pieces of black clothing and head to the studio (TSB). At work, I take appointments: lessons, full faces, camera ready applications or even master classes. The best feeling in the world is seeing my clients leave feeling gorgeous and confident! In between clients, I work on payroll, the schedule, prep for upcoming events and reach out to potential corporate clients. Head home to pick up my little man, cook dinner, bathe the baby, kiss my men goodnight and crash out.

Bakersfield, CA (shhh, don’t tell anyone. I’m a native).

I’m inspired by…
my son, Gunner. I want to leave him a legacy.
The one person who motivates me is…
my incredible boyfriend, Richard. (ugh, I hate the word boyfriend, it sounds so 16 and pregnant, I digress.) I would not be the person I am today without him. He continues to support and motivate me everyday.
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
more LOVE less hate.
The perfect day would be…
camping with Richard and my whole family at the dunes riding dirt bikes and driving sand cars (with NO wifi).

a HUGE glass of wine and binge watching reruns of Sons of Anarchy or Friday Night Lights.

Never…
doubt yourself.
