About the Artist


Makeup and fashion have been my passion since I was a young girl. I remember vividly how I flipped through my mother’s glossy copies of Elle and Vogue magazines; I studied every detail on the models. Being raised in Miami with its vibrant and diverse multicultural environment, I was exposed to an abundance of styles and looks


By age twelve, my passion for makeup took an interesting turn. I enrolled in Barbizon Modeling School where I learned the fundamentals of makeup application and fashion. Immediately after high school, I was hired to work as a Lancôme Beauty Advisor. Working there exposed me to the artistry that is makeup.  I attended seminars and trainings and continued to evolve as makeup and fashion evolved. This afforded me the tools and confidence to go on and become a freelance makeup artist. Since then, I've done bridal showers, weddings, quinces, sweet 16s, and special events. I am currently a freelance makeup artist and work for MAC Cosmetics.


I continue to evolve as I learn about all the new and ever-changing makeup trends, products, tools, and techniques; makeup application is an art. It requires vision, creativity, passion, and the confidence to push past comfort zones to create beautiful transformations. I believe every face is a canvas with beauty waiting to emerge.
