I’m Sami!

I grew up on the island, and in 2018 decided to pursue a career in nails. I started learning on my own, before registering at Blanche Macdonald in Vancouver. I graduated from the program in September 2019, before taking a more art-focused course through Ugly Duckling Nails back home in Victoria. From there continued to learn and take any courses I could find, from BeautySafe BC, to Pamper Nail Gallery’s 2D and 3D character art course, to Halo Nail Academy’s hard gel course!

I currently live with my partner, our two cats, Blair and Makita, and my dog, Kuma! I work out of the collective space at Vamp Salon, located in Esquimalt. It’s a welcoming space for all, and I’m thankful to work with such amazing people.
