In addition to being a makeup artist, I have had strong sales numbers in cosmetic companies such as Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, and Adrian Arpel. In addition, I was also the events coordinator and regional artist for the Southern California Division. I have studied, and worked extensively with plastic surgery patients, teaching and applying post surgical and camouflage make up. I’ve created personalized make up lines for dermatologists so they can service their clients by selling them the products. I have worked for celebrity salons on both coasts including Madison Avenue and Rodeo drive. In 2003, I shot my own cooking show, and for nine years prior proudly represented CBS National News including White House Division coverage. Please feel free to read on to see national awards, and celebrities represented. I feel that I am a well rounded individual in the art of make up for television, Cosmetic Airbrush Artistry, strong cosmetic and clothing sales, High-end interior design, and National Network News coverage.

Thank you in advance, for taking the time to read further.
