Care Shaped By Lived Work &
Lived Experience
My work brings together public health, esthetics, electrology, and gender-affirming care. Across community health and beauty settings, I’ve seen how a person’s experience can change when they’re treated with respect, listened to, and given care that reflects their goals.
