Owner, Master Esthetician & Professional Makeup Artist at The Local.

Beauty has always been my passion. Originally from Washington state, I began my career as a professional makeup artist in Miami, Florida, where I built a strong foundation in the beauty industry. During that time, I met my wonderful husband Mark, a North Dakota native, and eventually made the move to the small town of Beach.

Here, I expanded my expertise in aesthetics and deepened my knowledge of skincare. Over the years, I also grew my makeup portfolio, with a special focus on wedding makeup—an area of my career that brings me so much joy. Helping brides feel their most radiant and confident on their big day is truly one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

When I’m not working with clients, you'll find me spending time with my two little boys, traveling to warmer places or adventuring with my family on our farm. I’m beyond thrilled to bring unique, personalized beauty services to this rural area, and I can’t wait to work with you at The Local!

Licensed Massage Therapist & Master Myotherapist at The Local.

 I’m a proud graduate of the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts in Tempe, Arizona, and hold national certification with dual licensure in both North Dakota and Arizona.

My journey into massage therapy began in a unique way — with horses! As a Certified Equine Sports Massage Therapist, I discovered how powerful bodywork can be in promoting healing and restoring balance. Over time, I’ve found my passion and expertise in trigger point therapy, sports massage, and myotherapy, where I can truly make a difference in how people move, feel, and recover. There’s nothing more rewarding than being part of someone’s healing journey and helping them return to what they love most.

When I’m not in the treatment room, you’ll likely find me outdoors — hiking, fishing, hunting, riding horses, traveling or simply enjoying time with friends and family. I’m beyond grateful to be part of The Local and to serve my hometown and surrounding communities through the art of healing touch
