Professional MUA, I have been in the business for 8 years, first in making and custom blending makeup and getting in through the back door going from a visual artist to makeup artist. I look at makeup artistry in how you make visual art archival. I have had the good fortune in working in film, web series, tv , and editorial. I love creating the overall makeup design for shoots. I am very hands on. From creating high fashion, creatures, barely there makeup to every day..Challenging myself is very important.
