you, your skin, and your facial experience are my singular focus

MEET YOUR esthetician

Kim

I’m a dynamic skin therapist, and mother of 2, and I like my chai latte dirty, spicy, with oat milk. As a former salon owner, I spent most of my career behind the scenes taking care of business (… and working overtime). My passion lies in helping and healing others through education and touch. When I’m not chasing my kids around or reading about the latest and greatest in skincare, I spend my time as a CASA (court-appointed special advocate) advocating for youth in foster care.

My focus is to create a space where your individuality is celebrated while helping you embrace all the seasons of your skin. I can’t wait to be your esti bestie <3.

WHAT SETS US APART

  • 01 / TRANSFORMATION

    Every treatment is crafted using unique tools, a blend of intentional massage techniques, and skincare from meticulously chosen brand partners that work synergistically with YOU. I evaluate your whole self not just the skin.

  • 02/ EMBODIMENT

    I believe that beauty and wellbeing are synonymous, and it’s my goal to deliver skincare treatments and products that bring out your best and celebrate your individuality.

  • 03/ FEMININE ENERGY

    Embracing the flow of creative energy and translating it to massage during our time together helps me better understand your facial muscles and emotional expressions. Feminine energy is soft and rejuvenating, but it is also the force of transformation. Using this energy allows me to deconstruct any unwanted facial tension and invite in the new.

a little more about me

  • It depends on the day but lately, I’ve been gravitating towards:

    Hojicha lattes with homemade strawberry preserve

  • In the treatment room: 528 hertz, lofi beats, ambient dreams

    While driving in the car… don’t judge me I’m not that interesting. I like anything I can sing along to =)

  • I’m in my loose pants, casual chic, and neutral colors era (aka life). I’ve always loved interesting necklines, mock necks, and hate bodysuits. Lately I’ve been gravitating towards blazers!
