I've been working professionally with Make-up for over 10 years mastering my craft. I discovered that I had the artistic talent to create stunning and unique looks based on positive feedback from friends and family. I've been formally trained at the San Francisco Make-Up Institute, Style Institute, and MAC Master classes. I specialize in the eyes which as everyone knows are the windows to your soul.
I'm also a licensed esthetician and can provide the complete solution for your skin care needs. Any artist will tell you that a clean canvas is the beginning of that final masterpiece. I can help you achieve the look you've been searching for as well as help maintain it with a skin care regimen.
Make-up is not only a job but a passion and it's a wonderful feeling working with so many talented people. I feel lucky to work in an industry where you get to do what you love for a living. I'm here to meet new people to work with as well as network with all the beautiful models and creative photographers on MM.
I work throughout the Bay Area and have a shop available for make-up and spa treatments in the Easy Bay. I'm willing to travel within reason throughout the Bay Area. My rates are reasonable so just email me.
**UPDATE** It seems like there isn't enough hours in a day. Between running my spa, wedding season, working as a principal make up artist for an agency and John Robert Powers International, my time is very limited. I will have limited opportunities for TFP work. Please contact me with as much advanced notice as possible. Thanks!
