I am a makeup artist living in Los Angeles California. I graduated from the Makeup Designory in Los Angeles in 2009 and Cinema Makeup School in 2010. I have worked both in special effects shops and on set doing everything from beauty makeup and grooming to full creature suits masks and props. I have also done many demonstrations at various conventions including IMATS the International Makeup Artist Trade Show and Monsterpalooza almost every year since graduating from makeup school. I competed three times in the IMATS battle of the brushes competitions and placed all three times, winning twice at IMATS Toronto 2010 in both the Beauty Fantasy and the Character Prosthetics competitions. I also competed in Syfy's competition reality show for Makeup Effects artists 'Face Off' on both the 2nd and the 5th seasons, with 6 top looks and 4 wins on season 5, and was awarded the #1 spot on the Judges top 20 Face Off Makeups of all time countdown out of over 700 makeups that had been created on the show. I love what I do more than anything and always, always strive to do my very best work as well as to take everything as a learning experience towards becoming better than I was before.
