Whether sharing industry know-how, working on clients or running her business, Amy is known for her care and precision in all aspects of her career.

First Job

While in beauty school, I set up a table in my parents’ spare bedroom to do nails. I only had four regular clients per month, but I learned so much during that time!

Go-To Nail Product

The majority of my clients are focused on natural nail growth at the moment, so my current go-to product is Gelish Foundation Flex. It provides the perfect base for my clients’ natural nails while also helping them grow super long, thanks to the vitamin A and biotin infused within the base gel.

Favorite Nail Style

This is such a hard question because my favorite styles change regularly as different trends pop up. I tend to get bored of a plain color, so a mix and match set—mixing different colors and designs—is my current favorite.

Proudest Career Moment

My proudest career moment was when I was asked to join the wonderful Gelish UK team. My very first nail course was with Gelish, and I’ve been using it in my salon ever since. It’s a dream come true to work with a brand that I’ve loved and used for years. Another notable moment happened recently when I painted a mini portrait of Elphaba from Wicked on a set of nails: It caught the attention of the amazing Cynthia Erivo herself—such a pinch-me moment!

Favorite Summer Activity

Living in Scotland doesn’t always guarantee the sun in the summer, which makes it a bit unpredictable for planning summertime activities, but as soon as the sun is out, I try to spend every moment outside making the most of it. I also try to take more time off in summer so my fiancé and I can travel and explore new places and countries.
