• About the artist
Makeup Artist – Hair Stylist. I am a beauty professional from Upper Marlboro, Maryland with a professional background in fashion merchandising. With nearly ten years of experience as makeup artist and three years as hair stylist. I started doing makeup to make other women feel beautiful, just as it did for me. And I am very happy to be a pat of Audrey Bethards’ Artists Team.
• First encounter with beauty
When I was a child. Watching my mother every morning doing her makeup before going to work. I found so much fascination in her routine and technique.
• What and who do you admire the most and why
The ability to work with beauty and make something beautiful out of pure inspiration.
• What inspire you
I always take as a point of inspiration, my clients. I need to hear what thy like and dislike. And have some sense of their personality. This really give me the inspiration I need to perform my best!
• Philosophy on beauty,
Beauty is somehow subjective.
What one might not identify with, another might see as beautiful. Beauty is in fact, on the eye of the beholder.
• Best beauty advice,
I love skin to look like skin. My best advice is to never overuse cosmetics, respect beauty for what it is.
