At this time, I am full-time with Smashbox Cosmetics, and my job requires me to travel about 50% of the time. I am available for paid assignements with advanced notice. I am really fun and easy to work with, and I bring a lot of ideas to the table, while also realizing your creative vision.

FAQ:
I do not offer classes anymore at this time, due to my full-time status with Smashbox.
I use the highest quality cosmetic products and have a full color range.
I do not airbrush, I'm just old school like that.
I can do light hair styling, but not formal at this time. I will need to know in advance if this is desired.
