Meet Your Trainer — Serena
Hi, I’m Serena! I’ve been in the beauty industry for 13 years, specializing in brows, lashes, aesthetics, and more. Many people are surprised to learn that I was previously a bank manager, but my true passion has always been beauty, health, and aesthetics.
I’ve been happily married for 9 years and have two wonderful children. I’m beyond excited to expand my business by offering training and sharing my expertise with others!
Meet Your Trainer — Georgina
Hi, I’m Georgina! I’ve been in the beauty industry for 18 years, starting with eyelash extensions and spray tans while working in insurance. In 2022, I expanded my expertise into brows, lashes, semi-permanent makeup, facials and aesthetics.
After nearly 25 years in insurance, I took the leap to go full-time in beauty—doing what I love every day!
I’ve been with my partner for 10 years and have two grown-up boys. As they became more independent, I knew it was the perfect time to focus on growing my business and sharing my knowledge with others.
I’ve known Serena for 13 years, and we love continuing our education together, always learning new techniques and products! Excited to help you on your beauty journey.
