Growing up, I had a front-row seat to one of the smallest but most real anxieties a woman can carry: the morning brow routine. Every single day, my mom would stand at the mirror trying to get them even — worrying they'd smudge, worrying they'd be crooked, worrying about everything that could go wrong before she even walked out the door.
Then one day she found her PMU artist. And something shifted. The anxiety was just… gone. I watched her walk out of the house differently. Easier. More herself. I had no idea at the time that I was watching the thing that would define my entire career.
"That same artist taught me. She showed me the world of possibilities — what PMU could do for people. And I was sold."
I trained under the artist who changed my mom's mornings, learned Korean techniques that nobody else in the South Bay was offering, and started building something I believed in: a studio where every client walks out feeling the way my mom did after that very first appointment. Lighter. More confident. More themselves.
That was the beginning of SkinSpace.
