Passionate about nails, the industry and education, Jess stays busy in many areas of the nail industry.   Since 2002, Jess has spent her days in the salon doing gels on her clients.  Awarded Educator of the Year from Akzentz for both 2018 and 2019, Jessica has traveled the country providing classes for over 15 years.  She shares live videos of salon appointments on RealWorldNails.com to help nail techs who can’t attend classes understand the products they use and troubleshoot their customer’s nails.   And finally, she distributes at her store LuvNailz working to provide a place for nail techs to get top quality products. 

Jess has recently gotten into the fun and intense world of Nail Competitions, 2016 & 2017 Nailpro Top 10 Competitor and became the Nailympia Div 2 Champion in 2017.   Her passion for gels has helped her create techniques that are easy for beginners and produce nails that are long lasting and keep clients loyal.  Signature services like her “30 day manicure,” Rock Star toes and Glitter fade techniques excite nail techs passionate about making clients happy without taking hours during their appointments. 

Since helping create the NW Nail Retreat in 2010 and organizing schedules, educators, and event logistics, it is a work of passion.  Desiring to take the Retreat to more techs, Jess began taking Nail Camp to new locations in 2018, starting with the Nail Camp Cruise.   In May of 2019, Jess took Nail Camp near Atlanta, Georgia and Boise, Idaho.
