Licensed Esthetician

My path to becoming an Esthetician has been a lifelong exploration of healing, self discovery, and a deep connection to nature. 

Growing up I was always drawn to the beauty and vibrancy of the natural world, particularly the ocean and it's healing waters. My time spent in the caribbean deepened this appreciation for the restorative power of the sea, plants, and flowers.

Skincare became a transformative ritual for me-one that allowed me to nurture both my body and spirit. Through my own journey of self-care and healing, I discovered the profound connection between skin health and overall wellbeing.

This realization led me to pursue a career in aesthetics, earning my aesthetician license in both New York and Texas and graduating from the Ann Webb Skin Institute in Austin Texas. 

Along the way, I gained valuable experience working at The Herb Bar Apothecary in Austin, a place that reinforced my belief in the power of botanical skincare and holistic healing.

I also owned a retail shop in Woodstock NY, Sugar, where I curated products that aligned with my philosophy of wellness and self care.

Before immersing myself in aesthetics, I had a background in dance and worked as a vegan cook. Both experiences shaped my understanding of movement, nourishment, and the body's innate ability to heal. 

These elements continue to influence my work today, as I help clients embrace self-love, balance, and joy through personalized skincare rituals. 

At KARANAS, my goal is to create a space where beauty and wellness come together-where each ritual, facial, and treatment is infused with intention, care, and the healing essence of nature.
