As the daughter of an accomplished artist I learned early on to appreciate
the beauty of fine art and music. I was able to develop this appreciation
as a young adult through photography, sketching and watercolor. My love of art has beautifully and naturally transitioned to the art of
professional make-up application, which I have been practicing for more than
20 years. I have been trained by internationally renowned make-up artists
and continually strive to expand my skills and knowledge through education,
travel and hands on experience.
Additionally, my training as a professional photographer allows me to specialize
in the art of photography make-up. I understand how to make my clients camera-ready,
ultimately producing more flattering and natural-looking results.
