About Me

"The Artist's World is limitless. It can be found anywhere, far from where they live or only a few feet away. It is always at their doorstep."

                                                             -Paul Strand​

After leaving the ballet world, I spent 3 years attending a private art school in Boca Raton, FL., studying portraiture and life drawing in charcoals and pastels. My path then took a turn and I moved  to Toronto, ON, and studied to become a Professional Makeup Artist, SFX Artist and Hairstylist. Later I moved back to the New York Metro Area,  and worked to become a member of IATSE Local 798 as a Makeup / SFX Artist.

Throughout my 20 years' career, various production companies have hired me to work on their film, television, advertising, commercial, editorial, fashion editorial, and live broadcast projects, and many of them in key positions. During this time, I became known for my artistic insight, character creation, cleanliness and professional work ethic. Willing to travel.

Presently, I reside in beautiful Sedona, AZ.
