a bit About Me…

i am a professional makeup artist and licensed esthetician based in las vegas. My career began over 14 years ago in my home city of chicago, where my passion for artistry and the beauty industry took off and eventually landed me across the country.

i always loved expressing myself through art and creativity. painting, drawing, AND even school art projects were some of my favorite hobbies. i believe all those things naturally transferred to the art of beauty and makeup. i remember “playing” with my mother’s makeup and often found myself sitting next to her, while she applied it. i was fascinated BY how not only her physical appearance CHANGED, but what makeup did for her confidence, attitude, and inner beauty.

After years in the customer service industry, i decided to follow my instinct and began my professional makeup journey. i worked for a small cosmetics brand in the chicago suburbs PART-TIME. THE OWNER AND lead MAKEUP ARTIST became my mentor and dear friend as i assisted him WITH weddings and various events in the chicagoland area. he saw something in me and pushed me to follow my natural talents and my heart. eventually, that push led me to a 9 year career with MAC Cosmetics. while i continued my freelance work on the side, i worked at the flagship store on Michigan ave in downtown Chicago. i eventually found myself in a manager role, where i was able to inspire new artists and help them grow. At mac, I honed in AND perfected my communication skills, application techniques, makeup precision, and artistry. i eventually decided to leave the brand, and focus on my freelance work and personal clients. Life after Mac, led me to expand my knowledge even further when i earned my license in esthetics.

i am currently REPRESENTED by several local las vegas makeup AGENCIEs and continuing my freelance work on weddings, production, and photoshoots. My understanding of working with clients of various skin tones, skin types, and age demographics continues to make me a sought-after makeup artist. 

​I pride myself ON my artistry skills, communication, and PROFESSIONALISM. my main goal is to make my clients feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful inside and out. it is so important that i cater to each INDIVIDUAL clients needs and make them feel their best after they leave my chair. i love to work in a collaborative effort with clients, artists, and stylists to ensure that the final result is exactly what we all anticipated.

I look forward to working with you!
