About the Teacher:
Olga became passionate about Henna body art and pursued it professionally by starting a business called The Henna Boutique. I later published a book on the subject called The Henna Handbook. Born in Canada to first and second-generation Greeks, she was raised with the Greek myths as my bedtime stories. My heritage deeply inspires me and is often reflected in my creative works. Olga is presently a critical care nurse, living with her husband and 3 fur babies.
