By constantly updating my knowledge of the latest fashion trends, cutting edge hair designs, make-up techniques, and innovative hair care products; it’s no wonder why clients keep turning to me to create their new look. As a licensed cosmetologist and make-up artist for nearly sixteen years, I remain as passionate about the hair and fashion industry as I did when I graduated from Mr. Dels School of Cosmetology in 1994. My unique genre of services helped me land such jobs as preferred stylist for “The Knot” Bridal Magazine, 2007, assistant on set for centerfold model photo shoots (Penthouse, 1999) and television tapings (“Skating’s Next Star” Season 1), but I was touched by life-changing stories I received from client feedback. Seeing how my work impacted people’s lives and overall well being in such a good way gave me even more passion to continue learning so that I could educate not only my clientele, but also other stylists in the industry so that they could also carry on that passion. I achieved the following awards so far in my career:

·    Through continuing my education and logging over 50,000 hours behind the chair, I have earned the Title of Master Stylist.

·    Paul Mitchell’s “The Color” Specialist

·    Schwartczkopf  Color Specialist.

·    Fashion Editor, NuYou Magazine

I have attended special cutting classes known as “Pivot Point International”. I am very proud of my latest achievements with Pureology. I am a certified Pureologist, and as of February 2008 I will have achieved my next advancement with Pureology as a Level 1 PureArtist.

I am also an accomplished Make-up Artist and Human Hair Extension Specialist. My future goals include continuing to climb the ladder of success with continued education in more areas of the beauty and fashion industry. I am available for on location work and willing to travel the distance for model and portfolio photo shoots, weddings, television productions, music videos, fashion and Glamour productions, Runway fashion, charity and commercial production events, editorial and commercial print work.
