Vanessa is a third generation Montclairian. She and her husband moved back to Montclair from New York to start a family, and they are now enjoying her hometown through a different lens. After owning her own business as a medical esthetician working with top plastic surgeons in New York, she made a transition to a Beauty Editor and now is a freelance writer — covering beauty, skincare and lifestyle. Vanessa is always on the hunt for the newest spa and beauty trends, which she features on her instagram page. In her spare time, you can find her shopping in her favorite vintage stores throughout Northern New Jersey, and discovering eclectic food experiences in Montclair with her husband and their reluctant teenager.
