from the editor
Love is in the air and it’s a wonderful feeling. The first stages of a relationship are filled with uncertainty and excitement as the relationship continues to blossom. As time passes, your bond becomes deeper and you can’t envision life without your significant other. Once you are married, you share every day with your best friend while comforting each other during the highs as well as the lows. Love conquers all. Or at least it feels like it does. In the darkest of times, a little love can go a long way. Cheers to happily ever after and creating bonds to last a lifetime. The struggles you face together are easier to face as long as you have each other. In today’s day and age, couples are adding more flare than ever to their wedding day. Inside these pages, we feature a bride who decided against using flowers. Instead she replaced the flowers with rescue puppies and it just might start a trend. The wedding party, attendees and even those who weren’t invited were thrilled. Learn more about the impact Alissa Sieloff (also known as Alissa Kristine) has made in the area and how she is continuously moving up the success curve. Her amazing talents make her a force to be reckoned with. Enjoy your day and grab an extra piece of cake to make things even sweeter.

The Nature of Artistic Expression ALISSA KRISTINE’S INSPIRATIONS TURN HER CLIENTS INTO LIVING ART STORY BY MEGHAN DIEMEL | PHOTOS BY MIKE PETERS SHOT ON LOCATION AT: THE ATTIC | SALON SPA AURA MAKEUP BY: ALISSA KRISTINE NECKLACE HANDCRAFTED BY: MANDIE MARIE, GYPSIE MARIE DESIGNS
Living in the here and now, having gratitude and appreciating the little things – this is the motto of Alissa Kristine, 30, hair stylist and makeup artist at Salon Spa Aura in Green Bay. The De Pere resident says she has always been inspired by beauty in the world around her, which led to the development of her interest in hair and makeup at an early age.
She was also inspired by fashion and styling throughout the decades, as well as costuming for film, plays, and musicals, the creation of characters, and using images or a look to convey messages and feelings – but she wasn’t sure what she wanted to do after high school.
my goal.” Alissa says the Aveda mission – along with their stance against animal testing – struck a core belief she has always had within herself. Caring for the world we live in, giving back to society and setting an example for environmental leadership and responsibility are among the key components of the Aveda mission, set forth by founder Horst Rechelbacher.
“This career has been really good for me in assisting to break those personal barriers. When you genuinely care about someone as I do my clients, everything falls into place. It’s easy.”
“I wanted to apply my motivation, attention to detail and creativity into my work,” she states. “I decided to apply to the Institute of Beauty and Well“I figured it ness in Milwauwas somewhat of – Alissa Kristine kee, Wisconsin a short program for their cosmetoland I could alogy program. I chose the Aveda [accredways use it as a backup if I decided to attend ited] institute because I knew it would be school for something else,” says Alissa. one of the best schools to help me achieve “What I realized there was the joy of creatEXPRESSION CONTINUED ON PAGE 8 >>> February 2017 | www.greenbaypressgazette.com/you | 7

being able to make them feel good about themselves, was motivation to continue exploring other opportunities within her career. This led to crafting looks for senior pictures, engagement shoots and weddings.
Alissa’s focus career-wise has evolved as well. She says she’s very careful to claim a specialty within her career because she truly loves it all. In addition to her clients in a traditional salon setting, she’s worked with several local photographers, styling subjects for photo shoots that ranged from avant-garde to natural, from out-of-the-box to every day.
“Weddings equally are a great source of joy for me,” she says. “Hanging out with the bride, their family and friends is such a wonderful experience. I understand more about them and get to be a part of one of the biggest days of their life.”
“My joy was initially fulfilled by being able to glue feathers on someone’s eyelids,” she explains, “to use imagination. It then turned to lending a hand in helping to create and document important moments for people.” For Alissa, the connection that happened with people,
One of Alissa’s favorite moments to witness is the reaction when the bride is finished getting ready and in her dress, and her mother or closest friend sees her for the first time – or when she sees herself in the mirror for the first time. “A sparkle, a smile. Sometimes a tear in their eye. It’s a wonderful experience. This happens in the chair [in a salon] as well. I like to make people feel good about themselves, inside and out.” When Alissa wants to focus on making herself feel good, to find her inner strength, she falls back on one of the key components of the Aveda programming, which was to find inspiration in nature. Alissa says her

greatest moments are found in the silence and beauty of nature, being grounded and appreciating what the world has to offer. “We would take ‘wellness walks’ throughout the program,” remembers Alissa. “We were challenged to look at nature and architecture, and come back and create looks based off of what you saw and were inspired by.” That appreciation for her surroundings was reiterated on a recent bucket-list trip to visit her sister in Norway. While on a hike to Trolltunga, she was reminded that no matter where she was in the world, customs and rituals may be different, but people are people. “Researching before the trip, it was estimated to be a difficult 10- to 12-hour hike,” she explains. “We reached the top in four hours with perfect weather. Every moment was breathtaking.” Then a thunderstorm moved in, and the trails turned to waterfalls on the way down. Back tracking and alternative routes were made, but the last leg of the journey was too dangerous to cross. Luckily, a man from one of the few cabins in the area called to

the group of hikers, some who spoke English and others who did not. He explained, in broken English himself, that there was an alternative way out. Alissa and her sister whistled to the group and were able to communicate to the other hikers so they could all avoid further danger.

Local Nonprofit Educates Ethiopian Orphans Abroad STORY BY COLLEEN RIORDAN PHOTOS BY MIKE PETERS 10 | www.greenbaypressgazette.com/you | February 2017
In Ethiopia today, there are nearly five million orphans and 44% of the population is under the age 15, according to the CIA’s World Factbook. The populace has been decimated in recent decades by disease, constant border wars, drought, starvation and HIV/AIDS. “The pockets of orphans in poverty are so vast that there are some kids who will never encounter anyone who can help them,” says Melissa Tanke, founder and executive director of the nonprofit Working As One, Inc. In many countries, an orphan might be taken in by extended family or an orphanage. However, Ethiopia does not have the infrastructure to support them and there are not enough families left to shelter them. Working As One is one of a trio of nonprofits working together to create a future for the orphans through education. It was created in 2014 after Tanke took a life changing trip to the country with her son Joe. “It was heartbreaking,” says Tanke. “When my son and I arrived, it was obvious that an intervention was needed. It wasn’t possible to walk away.” “Of all of the African countries, Ethiopia was one of the hardest hit by HIV/AIDS. A lot of the kids who end up in our school were once the primary caretakers of their parents—who have since passed away.” Sibling groups have replaced the typical family structure. “There are now 8, 9, and 10-year-old kids raising their younger siblings and that’s their family. Ethiopia has no social services. These kids really are fending for themselves.” Working As One partners with the Miriam Beza Library and the Social Involvement Stream Ethiopia Development Association to provide education, combat hunger and poverty. They are based in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia. By partnering with other nonprofits, Working As One is able to provide care for the ‘whole child.’ “In our family’s work in different countries over the years, we’ve found that so many agencies focus on one need. We wanted to provide comprehensive aid.” Tanke notes that when an organization helps an impoverished area and only focuses on one particular need like dental care or malnutrition, they succeed and then move on to other areas. After they are gone, the local conditions often deteriorate again. “In our minds, to offer a child long term success, it had to be education centered. As we dug into the education issue, we found that hungry children don’t come to school. Sick kids don’t come to school. Kids who don’t have shoes don’t come to school. Our educational approach encompasses all of the needs of the children that we work with.” While the orphans struggle with profound poverty and illness, consistently going to school and keeping up with lessons simply are not possible. To keep them in school, the organizations provide childcare for younger siblings, shoes, clothing and food. However, Tanke has found the biggest barrier to education is language. According to Ethnologue.com, Ethiopia has over 80 active
Working As One, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. More information can be found at www.workingasoneinc.org. languages which create unofficial borders within the country, dividing one village from the next. In elementary school, children are taught in their local language with the exception of one English class. Once they shift to secondary school, all classes are taught in English because it is the one shared language in the country. Children who have not learned enough English then cannot continue past sixth grade. Tanke is optimistic in spite of the obstacles. From her home in De Pere, she organizes nutrition plans, raises funds for expanding services and blogs about the orphan’s needs. She is hopeful that Working As One’s comprehensive approach to education will give each child a better chance of pulling his or herself out of poverty and spreading the impact. “We’re trying to employ the multiplier effect. We can’t just help 50 kids. We need to help those kids go on to each help 50 more,” she says. “Our goal is to work ourselves right out of a job. Our goal is to have these kids take care of themselves. We don’t want to make dependents; we want to create independence.” Working As One, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.

THE FINISHING TOUCH A note from Belleza Hair and Makeup Artistry (www.bellezaforyou.com)
While we love the floral boho bride of years past, for the year ahead we’re most inspired by bridal glitz and glam. To showcase this style, we kept hair cascading down and accessorized with sparkly, statement headpieces. When placed strategically, they look beautiful flowing directionally with the hair. In the case of our bride outfitted in lace, we decorated her hair with not one but two head pieces, thinking creatively and outside the box! For 2017, we love embracing the bride’s natural beauty with softer, glowy skin rather than trendy heavy contouring. We enhanced glittery eyes with a hint of sparkle and statement lashes to complete an elegant but glamorous look.

milestone

Local Music To Love
The Tunes At These Venues Will Leave You Smitten STORY & PHOTOS BY IAN SUTHERLAND
Green Bay and the surrounding area has become a hot spot for local live music. From dive bars and coffee houses to summer concert series, there is something for everyone. If you’re looking for something other than arenas and theaters, here are some local music spots to check out. Located in downtown Green Bay, in the Broadway District, Keggers/The Lyric Room has made quite a name for itself in the past few years. The Lyric Room was opened as a “micro venue” aside from the bar Keggers which shares the same owner. Classified as a mid-level venue that will hold 100 people, the Lyric Room offers local and touring bands that aren’t quite big enough to fill large venues a chance to play up close to the audience. Since April of 2013, The Lyric Room has hosted hundreds of shows that include rock, metal, bluegrass, blues and Americana. Every Thursday night, The Lyric Room holds an open mic night. From 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. all ages are welcome and from 9 p.m. to 12 a.m. all acts must be 21+. 18 | www.greenbaypressgazette.com/you | February 2017
On the northeast side of Green Bay, you can find Frets and Friends. On University Avenue, Frets and Friends has become a mecca of live local and regional music. Opened in 2014, Frets hosts a wide variety of music from bluegrass, roots, rock, country, alternative and jam band music. Live music can be heard on the weekends and on Thursdays they hold an open mic night. Unlike most bar venues that may feature multiple bands, an average night at Frets usually features a single band. With music starting around 10 p.m., the band plays until bar close taking two or three breaks throughout the night. Aside from the music. Frets and Friends is also known for their wide selection of beverage choices. During the summer months when the Green Bay weather is warm, Jimmy Seas is the place to be. Sitting along the Fox River, this place is much more than just your typical sports pub. They have local bands playing live music usually Thursday through Sunday evenings. It has become known as a fun spot for late night jazz, blues and swing. You can also find rock, country, alternative, roots and even reggae music here. Along with the great food and music Jimmy Seas also has a classic automobile showroom. If you are looking for something unique look no further than the Cup O’ Joy. The “Cup”, as
it is known to most, began in the early 1990’s as a coffee house and small music venue. Over the past two decades, it has transformed from a Christian coffee house to a full on concert venue. Artists come from all across the country to play at the Cup O’ Joy. Music is played every Friday and Saturday with free admission. Open mic nights are usually held during the week but are not limited to just music. Rock N’ Roll Land started as a record store
and has become a hot spot for all things music. Located in the Westgate Plaza on Military Avenue, they offer a range of records, CDs, tapes and 8 tracks along with a vast collection of rock n’ roll memorabilia. In the back end of the store, there is a small stage where they hold shows and concerts where all ages are welcome. While most shows are free, some shows have a small cover charge. These are just a few of the many great music venues the Green Bay area has to offer. With such a wide variety of amazing music and fun, you’ll want to scope out them all.
