Check Out Delina Spencer’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Delina Spencer. 

Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Passion is an understatement when it comes to the beauty and fashion industry for me. I have never dreamed or imagined a different career in my life. I understand the importance of beauty and the impact it has on society. The beauty industry is constantly evolving and I knew that it was something I wanted to be a part of. I did not grow up in a wealthy family so I decided to pursue my dreams by nothing but hard work and dedication. When I imagine my life, I see myself loving what I do and will stop at nothing to pursue my dreams. All my experience and knowledge I have worked tirelessly for and having passion for something in this day and age can only be half the battle. Nothing can amount to the joy I feel when I am making other’s feel and look beautiful. Leaving my hometown to pursue this vision I had, took courage and full dedication I picked up and moved from my hometown in Hartford CT to gain more opportunity in the industry. One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do was leaving all of my family and friends behind. I know that there is not a limit as to how far I can go so I shoot for the stars and aim for the moon! 

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The good the bad and the ugly to say the least, my grandfather was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s when I was 10 it was very difficult to watch his health decline. In February 2021 while being away from home he passed away. This was very difficult for me as we were tremendously close. I used to dress him and help him remember how to eat. Alzheimer’s is a very ugly disease. Coming from a family that did not have an abundance of funds for me to pursue my dreams along with the hardships of keeping my family together and the weight of my family on my shoulders I felt like I needed to seek better for them. If no one was going to make it, I knew I would. 

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am a professional makeup artist/ esthetician and fashion enthusiast I am most known for my bold colored eye looks and my sense of style. 

What sets me apart from others is my drive and dedication if I fall, I know I will pick myself up and start again. 

Something that sets me apart from others is my heart. I have the biggest heart and a love for helping others. 

How do you define success?
Success to me would mean that I could provide for my family and make sure they have everything they need. On the professional side, I would reach my point of success when I can grow my business and help minority children pursue their dreams in this industry.
