My fascination for nail art started when I was 12 years old. I grew up in Latvia and I did not think there I could make a career out of my passion. When I first came to the UK, my always groomed hands and my nail designs constantly caught the attention of my colleagues and friends. And after a few years of being trapped in a job I did not truly enjoy, I decided to take a big leap of faith and to change career path. Back to Latvia, I trained to become a qualified nail technician. With my certificate in my pocket, I returned to London in 2009 with more enthusiasm and determination than ever to do work I love.

My first job was at the Hand & Foot Spa in Wimbledon where I met and got great support from incredibly-talented Nail Artist Shreen Gayle. I did not know it then, but our paths would cross again.

For more than 5 years, I have been working in various high-end beauty salons in Little Venice, Chelsea, Knightsbridge and Soho. As a freelance Nail Artist, I have done work for some great designers at London Fashion Week (2013, 2014 and 2015) including Simone Rocha, Hunter, Barbara Casasola and Regina Piu. I also get to work on events and I look after many private clients. I feel very fortunate to have had numerous opportunities to look after celebrities, singers, TV presenters and fashion journalists.

I believe in tailoring each treatment to the clients' specific needs and I take pride in delivering services of the highest standards. Being able to express my creativity and to beautify people's nails is my childhood dream come true!
