After realizing no one in her hometown offered the type of nail art she envisioned, Portland, Oregon native Sieracki started creating her own nail art. Before enrolling in beauty school, Sieracki worked as a jewelry designer and makeup artist for 10 years. “My childhood neighbor, who owned her own salon, actually gave me my first job in the industry and taught me how to hustle,” she says. As a master of abstract linework, Sieracki’s strong suit became hand-painted detail. “Nothing satisfies me more than bold, abstract color blocking,” says Sieracki. She sources her gel shades and nail products from Presto, The Gel Bottle Inc and Young Nails. She believes the Russian manicure makes a world of difference in the foundation and longevity of each manicure.
