Whether a concept, feeling, or daily routine, what does beauty mean to you?
To me, beauty is a feeling—a sense of calm and confidence altogether in one moment. This feeling comes from a particular space, putting on a beautiful garment, or taking a couple of minutes to do self-care. This feeling can also come from just being present in a certain moment.
Can you walk us through your typical morning routine?
I typically wake-up between 7-7:30am every morning, and immediately (although I’m embarrassed to admit it), check my emails and Instagram. I do my morning skincare routine, have a cup of coffee—typically, two—and get ready for my workout. Movement is so essential to my everyday routine, I always try to get it in before noon.
When you’re on the go, what are a few of the beauty must-haves you always make room for? Care to share which everyday essentials are currently in your bag?
What’s some of the best beauty advice you’ve ever received?

What’s one thing you wish you could tell your younger self?
Take your time! Whether it be with personal or business goals, I feel like it hasn’t been until the past year that I’ve understood the phrase, 'timing is everything.' Time flies, and sometimes we have to trust the timing of how/when things come our way!
What’s your preferred form of self-care when you have 5 minutes? 15? A full night in?
When I have 5 minutes, a face mask. When I have 15 minutes, going for a walk, and grabbing a coffee to get some fresh air. When I have a full night in, ordering in, and binge-watching my favorite show.
