Katie's journey began on a sprawling 260-acre ranch in Bend, Oregon, instilling in her a deep appreciation for nature. Drawn by her artistic flair and skill, she relocated to Seattle in 2008 to venture into the realm of gallery curation and art restoration. However, 2011 marked a turning point when she embraced her fascination with the beauty industry. Having graduated in 2012 from the Gary Manuel Aveda Institute as an Esthetician, Katie embarked on an entrepreneurial path. She founded her own venture, focusing on crafting bespoke, natural-looking eyelash extensions. Rapidly gaining a devoted clientele, Katie established herself as a trusted name synonymous with superior quality and comprehensive lash care education. With more than a decade of experience, Katie's journey continues at Lila June on Bainbridge Island, where she passionately continues her lash artistry.
