I am a studio trained pro makeup artist with more than twenty years in the beauty and fashion industry. I discovered a love for color and it's immense ability to be transformed when I was still in grade school. I had interests in writing and photography as well but I longed for a future as a true makeup artist.To gain the exposure and experience I needed I began working for Estee Lauder, cosmetics giant and a pioneer in the beauty trade. While achieving a multitude of skin care knowledge through this venture it wasn't long before the color "bug" hit me and I moved to Prescriptives. This is where I learned color theory and custom blending techniques. I soon reached the status of working as a staff artist for the elite brand M.A.C Cosmetics. While working for several years in the retail field I began to develop a need to be more independent in my creative process and followed into the profession of a freelance career. Today, I continue to work for the M.A.C brand as well as SMASHBOX.
Looking further, as I often do, I took the people skills I had become proficient in and along with several of my associates formed the partnership of L.A. LUXEADDICTION, a network of industry professionals. We enlisted the talented roster of makeup artists, photographers and stylists.
As we progress we will work towards building a network of dedicated artists and offer them the opportunities to express their visions by utilizing their inventive efforts.
